Written by award-winning Canadian playwright, Kat Sandler, we meet a mother and daughter on the verge of total breakdown. The other member of the household is the daughter's imaginary friend she’s had forever. We also meet a boyfriend, and a couple of other wildly extraordinary folk who arrive with a crucial job to do.

Violinist Etsuko Kimura and harpist Lori Gemmell are working towards a recording of music for violin and harp which will include commissions of new works by Canadian composers. We are delighted to be able to feature one of these works in our noon hour concert, along with other more well known compositions.
We will be presenting a recital of English songs and duets by British, Canadian, and American composers, including Vaughan Williams, Barber, Finzi, Larsen, Raminsh, and Weill. Since the partnership between poetry and music is so essential to art song, we wanted to return to our linguistic roots by presenting songs written in our mother tongue. As we chose sets for this recital, the theme of women arose, as our songs are written about women, or set the words of women."
