Confluence Concerts presents joyous, daring and thought-provoking musical experiences within a warm atmosphere of intimacy and discovery. We are a company of diverse creative artists dedicated to personal, thought-provoking, and moving presentations.

This season, our artistic team Larry Beckwith, Andrew Downing, Teiya Kasahara 笠原 貞野, Aidan McConnell, Suba Sankaran, and Patricia O'Callaghan, has created seven lovingly prepared programs performed by supremely talented artists in the warm surroundings of the Heliconian Hall. Each program has a different theme and tells a different story. We'll experience and learn about the wide scope of influence of the great Scottish bard Robert Burns; we'll focus on love as expressed by Canadian composers, songwriters and poets; we'll celebrate the extraordinary work of the great German-American composer Kurt Weill and much, much more.

Each concert this season features an entertaining and informative pre-show event 45 minutes before the concert start time, and a lively post-show reception at which you can mingle with the performers.

Join us for one concert, or the whole season. We'd love to see you.

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.
