Founders of Toronto's Essential Opera, Maureen Batt and Erin
Bardua create programs that tell stories, celebrate the art of singing, and set
new compositional voices alongside the classics. Tonight, we will enjoy a vast
range of song, from classics by Richard Strauss, Barbara Strozzi and Kurt
Weill, to new Canadian works from Saman Shahi, Anna Höstman and Monica Pearce.
A glorious garland of music to end our seson!
