Hall
35 Hazelton Ave., Toronto, ON M5R 2E3 Contact: Gail Hutchison Tel: 416-922-3618 This season, audiences at Heliconian Hall will enjoy a rewarding range of concerts and recitals in this charming, historic building. Programs will include a celebration of St. Cecelia during Canada Music Week in November, a Lieder concert in January, chamber music in March and spring concerts featuring promising young artists. Membership in the Toronto Heliconian Club offers advantages to a musician. First of all, there is the Hall itself – a visual and acoustic gem dating to 1875. With a vaulted ceiling, warm wooden walls and comfortable seating for 100 guests, Heliconian Hall provides an ideal setting in which to present intimate concerts. A grand brick fireplace graces one wall, while a large, handsome round rose window illuminates another. Behind the stage and its Steinway grand piano are a well-appointed kitchen and a lovely reception room. The basement contains attractive and ample cloak- and washroom facilities. Non-members may rent the Hall at reasonable
rates – not only for recitals, but for private and corporate functions
such as receptions, family gatherings, weddings, lectures and seminars.
