Art song has pestered me since my early teens, like an irresistible but nagging concubine.So begins the artistic statement of Art Song Toronto's Michael Rose. In spite of the fact that Toronto is primarily an opera town (and most of the vocal collaborative pianists who work there make their living as coach/repetiteurs), there are still plenty of opportunities to check out great art song projects, including A Girl's Guide to Art Song, featuring Heidi Breier at St. Andrew's United Church in Toronto at 8pm on Saturday, May 21. You can find the program here, and without a doubt Heidi and Michael should have some interesting commentary at the recital.
But wait...there's another Art Song Toronto recital coming up this weekend: at 3pm on Sunday, May 15, you can hear mezzo soprano Jenny Cohen with Michael Rose at Hamilton's First Unitarian Church.
