SUMMARY:Canadian Opera Company | Don Pasquale
DESCRIPTION:Gaetano Donizetti’s Don Pasquale returns to the COC for the first time in 30 years in a Technicolor production by Renaud Doucet and André Barbe. The French-Canadian creative team make their company debut with a lighthearted family feud: the aging Pasquale refuses to let his love-struck nephew Ernesto get married only to unwittingly choose his nephew’s beloved Norina as his own bride-to-be. The comic bel canto opera features COC favourites soprano Simone Osborne and tenor Santiago Ballerini as the young lovers\, and Georgian baritone Misha Kiria making his company debut in the title role.

SUMMARY:Scarborough Philharmonic Orchestra | Songs Of Hope
DESCRIPTION:Hope is the theme of this eclectic concert. \nAs a collective of artists working within a creative circle associated with the Scarborough Philharmonic Orchestra\, we have asked ourselves how artists can and should respond to the times we live in. Our answer has been the one word “Hope”. Drawing on various texts from the classical to the new\, and set within our own musical styles\, we have jointly conspired to infect our audiences virally with Hope. \n*Rehearsal image courtesy of Scarborough Philharmonic \nFeaturing: Danielle MacMillan\, Mezzo Soprano; Maghan McPhee\, Soprano; Odin Quartet (Alex Toskov\, Tanya Charles Iveniuk\, Matt Antal\, Samuel Bisson); Kaye Royer\, Clarinet; Gilles Thibodeau\, Horn; Lisa Tahara\, Piano\, Ronald Royer\, Conductor\, Ted Runcie\, Conductor\, (Friday Only) Vanessa Yu\, piano \nProgram\nDaniel Mehdizadeh\, composer Jess Azevedo\, librettist\, New Castles\, for Soprano\, Mezzo Soprano\, piano and cello (SPO Commission and Premiere) \n\nElienna Wang: Rosé Leaves\, for Mezzo Soprano\, Viola and Piano\nRyan Fwu\, composer\, (Maya Toussi\, words) \, The Midnight Garden\, for Soprano and Piano\nAnika-France Forget: composer\, (Aude A.

SUMMARY:The Royal Conservatory of Music | Alex Cuba and Raul Midón
DESCRIPTION:A double bill of soul\, jazz\, and Latin pop sounds\, featuring two dazzling singer-songwriters and instrumentalists – the troubadour from Miami and the Cuban songsmith from Smithers\, BC. \nGrammy\, Latin Grammy\, and Juno Award-winning singer-songwriter Alex Cuba’s songs are compelling exchanges that effortlessly groove through soul\, funk\, jazz\, and pop styles. A forward-thinking\, indie-minded artist\, Cuba’s sugarcane-sweet melodies\, pop-soul hooks\, and powerful guitar riffs have garnered him over 20 awards and nominations\, including four Latin Grammys\, two Junos Awards\, three Grammy nominations\, and one Grammy win. “He’s like Marvin Gaye singing soul to a new generation.” (Boston Globe) \nRaul Midón is also a Grammy Award nominated contemporary singer/songwriter whose impassioned acoustic guitar playing – which traverses pop\, jazz\, soul\, urban\, cumbia\, and flamenco – has garnered as much attention as his smooth singing and sophisticated writing. He has worked with countless legends in the industry\, including Bill Withers\, Herbie Hancock\, Sting\, Terence Blanchard\, and Dianne Reeves\, to name a few. “Midón has a beautifully controlled baritone that can express anything from tenderness to passion. And the guy can play.” (The Guardian)
