Brass Bash / String Thing!

The buzz is building for BRASH – TO’s baddest brass bash, coming March 11 & 12 – featuring a scorching lineup of the most energized gypsy / Balkan brass players in the world. Boban Markovic and his Orkestar from Serbia, Toronto’s own Lemon Bucket Orkestra and a bunch of special guests will blow the doors off the Opera House over that weekend. Not to be missed!

We’re very much looking forward to Noura Mint Seymali‘s return to town in two weeks. Advance ticket pricing lasts only until this Friday, so get ’em while you can!

This weekend at the Small World Centre, it’s very much a ‘string thing‘, as five of the city’s most talented players bring their respective instruments and traditions to a collaboration that was first presented last September during our festival. The combination of guitar, baglama, fiddle, erhu and qanun proved so compelling that we’re remounting it on Saturday. A few seats are still available.

Friday the Alliance française presents Hampaté & Sahel Blues performing music from Senegal, at Spadina Theatre, in association with Batuki Music.
