Excerpt from Joni Mitchell's 'Both Sides Now' | Tafelmusik

In this video, hear a short excerpt of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now", from our forthcoming concert Café Counterculture. One of her best known songs, and ranked by Rolling Stone as one of 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, we hope you enjoy our baroque arrangement of this folk classic.

First performed live for a sold-out crowd in fall 2019, Café Counterculture returns as a stunning new filmed concert, complete with two brand new arrangements by co-creator Andrew Downing. Featuring three members of our core orchestra on violin, oboe, double bass, and harpsichord, and vocals from guest artist Alex Samaras, this concert highlights Tafelmusik’s baroque flair alongside folk favourites from Yorkville’s colourful past. Sonatas by Bach and friends are interspersed with arrangements of iconic songs by Buffy Sainte-Marie, Joni Mitchell, Simon and Garfunkel, Neil Young, and others.

Elisa Citterio, violin
Marco Cera, oboe
Dominic Teresi, bassoon
Charlotte Nediger, harpsichord
Andrew Downing, double bass/arranger
Alex Samaras, vocals
