Be transported to the drawing rooms of Europe, as Consortium Aurora Borealis presents “The Captivating Flute’, a concert in which Doris Dungan, our featured artist, will shine in a programme of elegant late-Classic chamber music for flute and strings. She is joined by violinist Katie Stevens, violists Patrick Horn and Christopher Stork, and cellist Marc Palmquist.

Consortium Aurora Borealis heralds the New Year with ‘Café Paris’, an engaging concert by the popular Martin Blanchet Jazz Quintet, whose mellow moods will warm your spirits on a cold winter night! Their presentations delve into many different musical genres, from jazz to classical, with touches of world music.

Consortium Aurora Borealis is thrilled to welcome back award-winning pianist Angela Park for her third appearance in our concert series! We were overwhelmingly impressed with her performance in the Mercer-Park cello-piano duo and with Juno-winning Ensemble Made in Canada in 2014 and 2015.

Consortium Aurora Borealis is thrilled to be back with a live concert from our favourite stylistic period! “Count, Duke, Prince, King” presents elegant Baroque chamber music from the courts of eighteenth-century Germany for flute, oboe, violin, cello, and harpsichord, written by significant composers who were in the employ of aristocrats and royalty.

Consortium Aurora Borealis is truly thrilled to announce the second live concert of our 44th season, as we return to our beloved pre-Covid performing venue, the beautiful, historic St. Paul’s United Church, with its excellent acoustics. For this occasion, we are happy to introduce two passionate cello virtuosos from Toronto who will amaze you with their artistry and versatility.

A very warm welcome to our 44th Season, and to “Romantic Gestures”, a concert celebrating Scandinavia, with special guest artists. Ever-popular, charismatic violinist Jeremy Bell returns to Consortium for the 15th time! He is joined by pianist Shoshana Telner, with whom he has had a rewarding working relationship for the past seven years. They will entrance you with their virtuosity and musicality.

We have reached the final concert of our 43^rd season, and are so happy to have been able to resume in-person concerts recently. We end on a lighter vein, in keeping with the advent of Spring, and offer you a selection of bright, cheerful chamber music from the Classic era, sure to delight!

We are thrilled to welcome back virtuoso violinist Jeremy Bell, making his 14^th guest appearance with Consortium in “Romantic Piano Trios”, a concert which we are happy to present both in person and live-streamed, now that this route has become available.

Consortium Aurora Borealis joyously welcomes you to our very first in-person concert since the start of the pandemic! It has been a strange two years, but we were happy to be able to offer you a number of streamed, virtual concerts of chamber music in the interim.

We have come to the fourth and final concert in our virtual video series! As we conclude, we could not fail to include a concert from our favourite period of music, so we are pleased to present “Baroque Bliss”, with a Telemann solo violin Fantasia and eighteenth-century violin duos by Vivaldi, Leclair, and Telemann.
