David FallisThe Toronto Consort is Canada’s leading ensemble specializing in the music of the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Since its founding in 1972, the Toronto Consort has delighted audiences across North America and Europe with its inventive performances of this haunting repertoire. Some of Canada’s leading early music specialists have come together to form the Toronto Consort, whose members include both singers and instrumentalists. 

For the 1999/2000 season, the Toronto Consort offers a series of five concerts at Trinity St. Paul’s United Church: Monteverdi’s The Coronation of Poppea on November 19 and 20; Yuletide music on December 10 and 11 with special guests David Greenberg, Ben Grossman and Katherine Hill; an evening of music and words on February 25 with story- teller Susan Kennedy; American ensemble Piffaro performs a programme of lively Renaissance music on March 24; the season closes on April 28 and 29, when the King’s Noyse joins the Toronto Consort to perform French Renaissance music.
