Jeunesses Musicales Canada is proud to announce a tour by La Fiammata Piano Duo, consisting of pianists Linda Ruan and Charissa Vandikas. Organized as part of “Road Trip!”—a Pan-Canadian Partnership with Prairie Debut and Debut Atlantic—the duo’s Serenade to Humanity. 1 Piano, 4 Hands tour is now making its way across eastern Canada with stops in Quebec, the Maritime provinces, and Ontario.
In this concert, La Fiammata Piano Duo explore the importance of community through music. Through four-handed interaction on a single piano, Serenade to Humanity is an invitation to be joyful, come together, and celebrate the beauty of humanity.

The tour aims to promote artistic excellence while at the same time highlighting the importance of music in our society. Linda Ruan, one of the duo’s pianists, expressed her enthusiasm for this tour: “We are thrilled to share our passion for music with audiences throughout Canada. Music has the power to bring us together, inspire us, and uplift us, and we hope that our concert will bring a little joy and comfort to all those who hear it.”
