Now that the Festival has clued up, we reflect on

Now that the Festival has clued up, we reflect on some of our Highlights!

One crowd favourite is the Academy Noon Concerts, of which we had 6 free concerts at Heliconian Hall. These feature performances from our Chamber Music Institute Fellows. The Academy Noon Concerts were generously supported by TD Ready Commitment and James M. Estes.

Pictured here is Jessy Je Young Kim, Hannah Corbett, David Liam Roberts, and Serena Hsu performing Beethoven's String Quartet No. 8 in E minor, Op. 59, No. 2 on July 15!

As we conclude our 2022 Festival, we are reminded

As we conclude our 2022 Festival, we are reminded that music brings us all together and connects us with one another. As always, we could not have done this without you. It is thanks to you that we are able to offer our programming, support artists, and continue to build and strengthen our TSM family and community.

From our Opening Night and our spectacular Saturday ReGeneration concert series to our super fun Kids Concerts and our impressive Academy Noon Concerts featuring our Chamber Music Institute Fellows, we have been treated to performances by some of the most fabulous musicians from around the world!

We are thrilled to share with you some exciting stats from the #tsm2022 Festival:

-29 Fellows from around the world, including Canada, the U.S., Mexico, Brazil, Puerto Rico, Hong Kong, and South Korea
-Over 50 concerts featuring more than 128 artists, including 45 Academy and Community Program Mentors
-12,000 audience members in total
-4 sold-out concerts
-Our largest Community Program to date with 70 participants
-61 works by living composers and 51 works by female composers performed
-7 world premieres

We are amazed and heartened by the outpouring of generous support during our Festival and in celebration of our 17th anniversary. We are delighted to report that our Matching Campaign was a huge success! Thanks to you, we exceeded our goal of $20,000 in donations, which will go a long way to ensuring that the future of classical music in Toronto's summer remains healthy and thriving.

Knowing that we can always come together to listen to music is what will keep us going through adversity. Thank you for joining us. Thank you for your generosity. And, most of all, thank you for coming back. Stay tuned to see some highlights from the 2022 Inspirations Festival!

With lots of love,
-TSM Team
