As 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 \u201cHope\u201d. 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.<\/em><\/p>\n Featuring:<\/strong> Danielle MacMillan, Mezzo Soprano; Maghan McPhee, Soprano; Odin Quartet (Alex Toskov, Tanya Charles Iveniuk, Matt Antal, Samuel Bisson); Kaye Royer, Clarinet; Gilles Thibodeau, Horn; Alexa Bell, flute; Lisa Tahara, Piano, Ronald Royer, Conductor, Ted Runcie, Conductor<\/p>\n \u2022 Shreya Jha: (music and words) Walk with Me, for Mezzo Soprano and Piano (New Generation Composer, SPO Commission and Premiere) The theme for this eclectic concert is hope by a collective of artists working within a creative circle associated with the Scarborough Philharmonic Orchestra.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":103668,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"tags":[40553],"tribe_events_cat":[6487],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ludwig-van.com\/toronto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/103665"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ludwig-van.com\/toronto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ludwig-van.com\/toronto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ludwig-van.com\/toronto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ludwig-van.com\/toronto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=103665"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.ludwig-van.com\/toronto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/103665\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":103669,"href":"https:\/\/www.ludwig-van.com\/toronto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/103665\/revisions\/103669"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ludwig-van.com\/toronto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/103668"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ludwig-van.com\/toronto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=103665"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ludwig-van.com\/toronto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=103665"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ludwig-van.com\/toronto\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=103665"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Program<\/h3>\n
