| Off Centre Music Salon 2007-2008 MEMBER PROFILES Founded thirteen lucky years ago, Off Centre Music Salon offers a holistic musical and aesthetic experience—a chance to play and hear vocal, chamber and solo musical repertoire in an atmosphere evocative of a 19th-century European salon. The Perkis-Zarankin husband and wife team complement each Salon with four-hand piano performances, and the erudite Stuart Hamilton—CBC quizmaster, founder of Opera in Concert—hosts all five of our intimate and spontaneous concerts. As always combining traditional repertoire with rarely performed musical, poetic, literary and visual masterpieces, Off Centre takes audiences on a “13th Edition World Tour” with stops in St. Petersburg for White Nights… in the Afternoon (Sep 23/07), Chopin and Bellini’s Bel Canto Venice (Nov 4/07), the Franco-Spanish Border of Mallarmé and García Lorca (Dec 2/07), the Germany of Bach, Beethoven and Brahms (Jan 27/08), and, finally, Schubert-ville (Feb 24/08). All concerts take place on Sundays at 2pm at Glenn Gould Studio. Subscriptions are $200 for adults and $150 for seniors and students. Single tickets are available at the GGS box office.
