For almost 20 years, Svetlana Dvoretsky and her full-service production company Show One Productions have presented some of the world’s greatest symphony orchestras, ballet companies and dance and theatre productions across Canada. The company has been responsible for such unforgettable collaborations as the premiere of the theatrical Brodsky/Baryshnikov, marking the Toronto return of the legendary dancer; and the exclusive, once-in-a-lifetime performance of Dmitri Hvorostovsky with Anna Netrebko and Yusif Eyvazov at the Four Seasons Centre in 2017.

Svetlana Dvoretsky is also a founder/producer of the innovative entertainment company Lighthouse Immersive Inc., which since 2020 has created Immersive Van Gogh, and other immersive experiences, featuring the likes of Klimt, Frida Kahlo and King Tut, which have been hugely successful not only in Toronto but also in other major centres across Canada and the U.S.

This fall, after having presented his sold out, enthusiastically received Koerner Hall solo debut in 2020, Show One - in conjunction with Cherry Orchard Festival - is proud to bring back pianist Lucas Debargue, one of the most original soloists on today’s concert stage, on October 29.

VOICEBOX Opera in Concert 2022VOICEBOX: Opera in Concert is Canada’s only company dedicated exclusively to the presentation of rare opera programming. Our performances rely on the power and beauty of the human voice, the dramatic inflection of text and poetry accompanied by orchestra or piano.

This tradition continues in the coming season with astonishing works by the very young Mozart, Luigi Cherubini, and Joseph Bologne.

The season opens at the St. Lawrence Centre on Sunday, November 20, 2022, with Lucio Silla by the 17-year-old Salzburg prodigy already renowned for his keyboard wizardry. Suzy Smith - Music Director and pianist - leads a cast including debuting tenor Owen McCausland in the title role, as well as Vania Chan, Amy Moodie and Holly Chaplin. Cherubini’s Médée follows on Sunday, February 19, 2023, led by Narmina Afandiyeva as Music Director and pianist. The season concludes on March 19, 2023, with the Toronto premiere of L’Amant Anonyme composed by Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges, known as the Black Mozart. This special event will be led by Stephen Hargreaves, conducting his own realization of Bologne’s remarkably sophisticated score. All three performances will be with OIC Chorus led by Chorus Director Robert Cooper.

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.
