Esprit OrchestraEsprit Orchestra is Canada's only full-sized, professional orchestra devoted to performing and presenting new music.

Founded in 1983 by Music Director and Conductor, Alex Pauk, Esprit’s commitment to commissioning and advancing contemporary music has set it apart as one of the few organisations of its kind on a global scale. Esprit consistently collaborates with outstanding composers and performs with first-class soloists and ensembles from Canada and abroad.

With a dynamic annual subscription concert series, this skilled orchestra presents music that is otherwise unavailable in Canada. Esprit performances are regularly recorded, and many can be viewed online in full.

During the 2025/26 Edge of Your Seat Festival II, Esprit will present four concerts at Toronto's Koerner Hall, comprising the very best in contemporary music from around the world. Esprit will present new co-commissioned concerti by Dieter Ammann and Misato Mochizuki for violist Nils Mönkemeyer and violinist Akiko Suwanai, premiere 2 new Canadian works, and perform music by such esteemed composers as Claude Vivier, Thomas Adès, Aziza Sadikova, Anna Thorvaldsdottir, Ben Nobuto, Arvo Pärt, Anders Hillborg, Alexina Louie, Gabriella Smith and more!

Off Centre Music Salon 2022Founded in 1995 by pianists Inna Perkis and Boris Zarankin, Off Centre Music Salon is a Toronto-based chamber music series known for its adventurous programming, intimate concert experiences, and dedication to Canadian talent. Inspired by the 17th-century Parisian salon tradition and enriched by their artistic experiences in Vienna, the founders envisioned a space where music, storytelling, and intellectual exchange could flourish.

Rooted in history but forward-looking in spirit, Off Centre has continually adapted—bringing together emerging and established musicians, and offering audiences a uniquely personal way to engage with music. The series remains a rare blend of warmth, depth, and artistry that reflects the founders’ vision: to create not just concerts, but conversations.

This special season is titled “Dream The Impossible Dream.” It will stand as a landmark 30th Anniversary Season, showcasing eminent Canadian artists throughout all five concerts of the season.

Yorkminster Park Baptist ChurchYorkminster Park is synonymous with magnificent music. Whether it’s the choir accompanied by the majestic Casavant organ, our Memorial Carillon (one of 12 in Canada), or the congregation lifting their voices in hymns of praise, vocal and instrumental expressions of faith are integral in the Yorkminster Park experience.

Our choir, under organist and music director William Maddox and his assistant, Sharon Beckstead, enjoys a reputation as one of the best church choirs in Toronto. We present a series of free organ recitals at 12:30pm, every Wednesday from September through June, featuring performers from around the world.

We have a wide variety of unique musical events throughout the year, but Yorkminster Park is renowned for its special seasonal concerts. The quality of the music ministry at YPBC is never more evident than during Advent and Holy Week. These services have become community traditions: City Carol Sing, Carols by Candlelight, Iona liturgical music, the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols, Passiontide Devotion during Holy Week and Evensong services three times a year.

Our sanctuary is frequently made available to other choral and concert groups, which draw appreciative audiences from all over Southern Ontario.

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.
