First Woodbridge Concert
Posted by Parin Choksi
The Rotary Club of Woodbridge is bringing Classical music into the Vaughan Community.
Great Success on our First Classical Music Concert.
The Concert was held at Veneto Centre on June 11 and at Our Lady of Lourdes on June 12-2015
Maestro Gianmario Cavallaro from Rome, Italy, performed on Classical Neapolitan Music with 15 Musicians from the Toronto Opera. Tenor Michael Ciufo and Soprano Sara Papini sang melodious Italian songs.
The Mayor of Vaughan Maurizio Bevilacqua, Laura Vaillancourt of Ontario Philharmonic, the Consolato Generale d'Italia a Toronto, The Centro Scuola e Cultura, and the Canadian Italian Heritage Foundation endorsed the Event.
Thanks you to all our sponsors!
Comment from one of our guest of the evening:
Thank you kindly for the wonderful invitation to Woodbridge and to Woodbridge Rotary’s Inaugural Summer Concert.
What a stellar evening! From the moment I arrived, I was carried away with the warm hospitality befitting a perfect summer evening. The venue décor elements made a firm statement that something spectacular was about to take place.
The program was highly engaging and animated. I especially appreciated knowing the time period of the pieces from Gianmario’s introductions as my family hails from Europe: England and France.
All of your hard work and vision for classical music in Woodbridge shone throughout the concert. Thank you for thinking of me and including me in your very special evening.
Cheers,
Laura
