Starting this Sunday, March 29, the Toronto Symphony Orchestra will be live-on-air, at The New Classical FM, for a weekly radio show and podcast titled Sunday Night with the TSO.
Co-hosted by Jeff Melanson, President & CEO of Toronto Symphony Orchestra, and The New Classical FM’s Kathleen Kajioka, the hour-long program will include exclusive interviews with orchestra musicians, guest artists, conductors. Topics will include commentary on current classical music events, glimpses backstage at Roy Thomson Hall, and of course, plenty of music.
“We are determined to push the boundaries of how classical music is defined, created, performed, and experienced” Jeff Melanson said. “We aim to advance the art form and make it as widely available as possible using technology, experimenting with alternative performance practice, and expanding our reach. This innovative partnership with our long-time collaborator Classical 96.3fm brings the TSO into more homes and gives audiences an on-stage seat with our orchestra.”
