Since the beginning of the pandemic, the TSO and Toronto Star have collaborated on Musical Moments hoping to harness the power of music to inspire Star readers as they went through the exceptional coverage by the Star’s writers and editorial staff, and help our city get through this crisis.
For this 34th and final Musical Moment of the year, the TSO dedicates this performance to all of the Toronto Star journalists who continue to tell our city’s and our country’s stories.
Concertmaster Jonathan Crow leads nine TSO musicians in the delicate Largo from Winter, part of The Four Seasons by Antonio Vivaldi. In Vivaldi’s own words this movement evokes the feeling of “spend[ing] happy and quiet days near the fire, while, outside, the rain soaks hundreds.”
We'll be back in 2021 with more music!
