Flute Street, now in its second decade, is a homogeneous, seven-octave, full range chamber ensemble comprised exclusively of flutists who perform on nine different sizes of flutes from the tiny piccolo to through to the largest flute – the very rare, and Canada's only, double contrabass flute. With two additional contrabass flutes, the unique contr'alto and several bass and alto flutes there is an unexpected depth and beautiful richness achieved in Flute Street's sound. Audiences delight in the varied programming which includes renaissance and baroque repertoire, pop tunes, a few symphonic transcriptions, folk songs, jazz standards, solo features with international and local guest artists, and in particular, original and contemporary flute choir compositions – many of which have been Canadian or world premieres.

Under the artistic direction of founder, Nancy Nourse, and conducted by Isaac Page, Flute Street is pleased to present its 11th anniversary season at the Church of St. Peter and St. Simon-the-Apostle.

    St. James CathedralThe Choir of St. James Cathedral sings for two choral services each Sunday, the morning eucharist and afternoon evensong. The choir includes both eight professional singers and experienced amateur singers. Handel’s Messiah is presented on December 14th, and an annual choral concert in May, both with orchestra. The Advent and Christmas candlelight carol services are always very popular.

    Organ recitals on the large 5,100 pipe organ are presented each week of the year on Tuesdays at 1pm. Admission is free.

    St. James Cathedral also supports an artist-in-residence and an organ scholar.

    All enquiries about our music may be directed to Thomas Bell, Director of Music.

    The Toronto Choral Society has been an integral part of Toronto’s musical history for 180 years! In order to go forward with the highest level of integrity, authenticity and good humour we need to expand our membership. Our new season begins in September, when we will be preparing for our traditional Christmas concert at Koerner Hall, on December 1. This concert will feature Vivaldi’s Gloria, Gloria from Bach’s Mass in B Minor, Gloria from Mozart’s Spatzenmesse, and other works. We aspire to creatively reflect Toronto’s diverse culture through our music. If you like to sing and enjoy a weekly evening of socializing, you could be performing with us in the coming season and be a part of a unique musical experience, “singing is the one thing in my life that never fails to take me to where disenchantment is almost nonexistent and feeling good is pretty much guaranteed.” For info please visit our website.

    Vesnivka ChoirAward-winning Vesnivka Choir was established in 1965 by founding artistic director Halyna Kvitka Kondracki. The choir has delighted audiences with its rich repertoire of Ukrainian classical, contemporary, sacred and traditional folk music. Vesnivka, together with its partner the Toronto Ukrainian Male Chamber Choir (also founded by Ms. Kondracki), are often joined in concert by area musicians and soloists. We are excited to announce that Nazar Lozynskyy will be assuming a broader role as co-conductor of the choirs in the upcoming 2024/25 season. Our concert season will consist of three major concerts, the first being “Prayer for Ukraine”, a concert of sacred music by classical and contemporary Ukrainian composers, to be held on November 3, 2024. Joining the choirs will be guest ensemble St. Nicholas Ukrainian Catholic Church Choir from Toronto. On January 12, 2025, we will celebrate the new year with our annual Christmas concert, featuring traditional and contemporary Ukrainian Christmas carols and New Year’s songs. Our final concert of the season will be held on May 4, 2025. “Songs of Love” will feature a program of Ukrainian music depicting themes of romance, unrequited love as well as familial love.

    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.
