Mississauga Symphony OrchestraThe Mississauga Symphony Orchestra (MSO), with a combination of 90+ community musicians and professional section leads, has earned the reputation as the best hybrid orchestra in Canada. The MSO has been active in Mississauga for an astonishing 50 years, and is now designated as one of Mississauga's six pillar institutions of arts, culture, and heritage. Based out of Hammerson Hall, a world-class performing arts facility located within the Living Arts Centre, the MSO provides performance opportunities and personal development to talented amateurs while combining the strands of excellence and education by assisting young professional performers and composers through solo performance opportunities, commissions, and mentoring.

Under the direction of maestro Denis Mastromonaco since 2013, the orchestra offers entertaining and increasingly sophisticated programs from classical and popular repertoires of symphonic music, performed to the highest artistic standards. With the inclusion of the Mississauga Symphony Youth Orchestra in 2013, the organization has become the centre of classical music in Mississauga, built around the pillars of music education, performance, and entertainment.

Mississauga Chamber SingersA New Sound in the City. Mississauga Chamber Singers celebrate the transition from the larger MCS Chorus/Mississauga to a chamber choir bringing clarity and intimacy to great choral masterpieces.

The transition to chamber choir engages skilled singers within the choral ensemble, creating artistically dynamic performances with a widening scope of the classical choral music. In addition, this enables the choir to better reach the communities in Mississauga by becoming more flexible and able to perform in a wider variety of performance spaces.

Led by artistic director, Mervin William Fick, Mississauga Chamber Singers perform classical choral repertoire, from a wide range of A Capella works to timeless works for choir and orchestra.

The Mississauga Chamber Singers performs a diverse season of extensive community engagement events, multi-generational musical education programming and ticketed concerts. Come and hear the difference!

Kindred Spirits OrchestraThe Kindred Spirits Orchestra is a critically acclaimed, auditioned-based civic orchestra performing at the Flato Markham Theatre, the Richmond Hill Centre for the Performing Arts, and the CBC Glenn Gould Studio in Toronto. The KSO is an Ontario not-for-profit corporation and a registered public charity with the Government of Canada. The KSO business structure is based on a unique model that integrates the best practices of managing symphony orchestras in Europe, the USA, and Canada. In addition to performing concerts, the KSO offers several educational, community outreach, professional development and international cultural exchange programmes.

During the 2020 pandemic, the KSO quickly evolved and, by leveraging digital technologies and the Internet, transitioned to offering live concerts via broadcast and stream. As a result, the KSO is now attracting patrons from beyond the geographical boundaries of the Greater Toronto Area and from as far away as the USA, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.

The upcoming 2021/22 concert season will offer nine concerts featuring masterworks by Tchaikovsky, Chopin, Rachmaninoff, as well as lesser known pieces by Shostakovich, Prokofiev, Stravinsky, Hindemith, Bartók, Korngold, Dukas and others.

Ken Page Memorial TrustThe Ken Page Memorial Trust is a non-profit charitable fund supporting jazz and the artists who create such lasting memories for all of us. The aims of the Trust are to encourage emerging talent, foster an understanding of the evolution of the music, promote jazz education through workshops, masterclasses and outreach programs conducted by established professionals, and to provide financial aid to jazz musicians on an emergency basis.

The KPMT holds annual jazz fundraisers featuring some of the world’s leading jazz artists and honours jazz professionals with its Lifetime Achievement Award; it also presents seasonal performances of Jim Galloway’s Wee Big Band and among others provides grants to the University of Toronto Faculty of Music and the Ken Page Memorial Trust Scholarship Award in memory of Ron Collier held at Humber College. Donation appeals through the KPMT Annual Review have established a special fund for musician support once local venues resume regular live music programming. Sincere thanks to all our loyal patrons who have responded so generously.

Due to COVID-19, some events are postponed. For more details, and if you would like to help us make a difference in the community, please visit our website.

The Jubilate Singers is an auditioned chamber choir that enjoys singing an eclectic mix of music from Canada and around the world, in many different languages. In recent years we have collaborated with groups representing a variety of cultural traditions including concerts of Latin American music, programs featuring music from the Islamic, Jewish and Christian traditions, and a collaboration on African music with the Ubuntu Dance and Drum Theatre. We sang an all-Canada program for the sesquicentennial year, and in 2019 we performed Beethoven's Symphony No.9 with the North York Concert Orchestra.

For 2021/22 we have been moving between virtual and hybrid rehearsals, but we hope to present a fully in-person concert by June 2022. This February's concert-length video includes a varied program of choir favourites and some lesser known international songs. We are an inclusive and welcoming choir that works to enhance the musical skills of its singers, and we are always looking for new members!

Isabel Bader Centre for the Performing ArtsThe Isabel Bader Centre for the Performing Arts (the Isabel) is a home for the creative arts at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario and a hub of vibrant artistic study, creation, and exhibition in our community. The building houses the Queen’s Department of Film and Media and the DAN School of Drama and Music, as well as the Isabel house season, which brings some of the most exciting and acclaimed musicians to its 567-seat concert hall. Situated on the shores of Lake Ontario, the Isabel brings together world-class arts spaces and programs with a captivating sense of place, creating a dynamic venue for our students and community to learn, discover, think, do, and experience together.

Opened in September 2014, the Isabel was designed by Oslo/New York-based firm Snøhetta and Ottawa’s N45, with acoustics and theatre design by ARUP and Theatre Projects Consultants. Anchored by a transformational gift to the Initiative Campaign from Drs. Alfred and Isabel Bader, the Isabel was inspired by the Baders’ love - of the arts, of Queen’s, and of each other - and is named in Isabel’s honour.

20th ANNUAL DIRECTORY OF MUSIC MAKERS

We are pleased to present our 20th annual Blue Pages, a directory of music presenters and arts services published every year in our October magazine, and maintained year-round online, under the “Who’s Who” tab at thewholenote.com. This year’s 152-profile portrait of musical life in the Greater Toronto area and Southern Ontario has two segments: section 1 reflects the wealth and diversity of music presenters and performers in our region – orchestras, choirs, opera companies, chamber ensembles, etcetera; section 2 is for individuals and organisations providing services to artists in the communities we cover, predominantly artist managers and publicists.

We’d like to thank all who have chosen to participate in this year’s Blue Pages; individuals and organisations whose support and dedication helps sustain not only The WholeNote but the music community in general. If your organisation missed being part of the October Blue Pages, we’ll be publishing a “latecomers” supplement in the November issue. And the online directory accepts new members year round.

For information on the benefits of a WholeNote membership (of which this Blue Pages profile is a feature), please contact Karen Ages at karen@thewholenote.com or 416-323-2232 x26.
