The Toronto Philharmonia celebrates its 33rd season with a 7-concert series of quality, affordable classical music. As orchestra-in-residence in the acoustically perfect George Weston Recital Hall, Toronto Centre for the Arts, the fully-professional orchestra is led by charismatic Maestro Kerry Stratton. Highlights of the 2004-2005 programme: classical guitarist Daniel Bolshoy in Rodrigo’s beloved Concierto de Aranjuez; Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No. 3 and other keyboard classics with brilliant young Korean soloists; colourful opera highlights performed by four Prague Opera soloists; Remembrance Day celebrations with the Toronto Mendelssohn Choir; and a December programme of treasured holiday music with klezmer band and CBC’s Barbara Budd as narrator. Concerts are Thursdays at 8:00 p.m., with the February concert on Saturday at 8:00 p.m. The Toronto Philharmonia has an active youth outreach
program, as well as a busy touring schedule in six Ontario communities.
