\u201cBritish social development has led the Western World in revolutions and expanding social democracy, including the democratization of the arts,\u201d said Douglas McNabney, artistic director of Toronto Summer Music, who mark his final summer with the TSM<\/a> this year. \u201cFrom brass bands, music halls, Victorian songs and operetta to the Beatles and Radiohead, British pop culture has helped transform and define modern global popular culture.\u00a0 London, by far the largest, fastest growing and most prosperous urban centre in Europe has always been a mecca for music and musicians, attracting composers such as Haydn, Mozart, Mendelssohn, and Liszt, who made frequent and prolonged visits to the city.\u201d<\/p>\n

Highlights include pianists Jeremy Denk and Christopher O\u2019Riley, mezzo-soprano Jamie Barton, and the Parker and Dover String Quartets.<\/p>\n
