WELCOME

Welcome to the 2021 Toronto Summer Music Festival! For three weeks

in July, New Horizons looks beyond the challenges of the pandemic, and

forward to a better future. We celebrate this summer with a wonderful

assortment of music from both past and present, showcasing the

resilience and creativity of our featured artists.

From July 15 through August 1, you will experience an incredible

line-up of chamber music, art song, and even dance, and notably the

return of our TSM Academy for Emerging Artists after a one-year hiatus.

Performers and composers will include Adrianne Pieczonka, Charles

Richard-Hamelin, Asitha Tennekoon, Kelly-Marie Murphy, the Gryphon

Trio, Alice Hong, the New Orford String Quartet, Echo Chamber Toronto,

the National Academy Orchestra, Jessie Montgomery, Philip Chiu, and

of course our amazing Academy Fellows and Mentors.

We are grateful to you, our fabulous patrons, supporters, donors,

volunteers, and community members. Your enthusiasm and support

makes this all possible, and we raise a glass to you!

With best wishes,

Jonathan Crow

MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD CHAIR

Welcome to the 2021 Toronto Summer Music Festival! While we had

hoped to be back to normal this summer, I am thrilled that you could

join us for this year’s “virtual” Festival. Our Artistic Director, Jonathan

Crow, has planned another stellar line-up of amazing talent, as well as

performances by our Academy Fellows.

This past 16 months has been an extremely challenging time for

Canada’s arts community, including TSM. This year’s Festival would not

have been possible without the incredible generosity and support of

TSM’s sponsors, patrons, staff, volunteers, family and friends. The fact

that we can support our wonderful Artists and Fellows and provide

music to our audience through this Festival is what makes TSM thrive.

I send my heartfelt thanks to all of you for your support, and very much

look forward to when I can thank you in person as we share music

together. Until then, please stay safe, and enjoy the music!

Sandra Forbes
