The Music Garden

It was Thursday....and the beginning of a summer filled with free music at the Waterfront's Music Garden.
This will continue until September 13th, and performances will take place on Thursdays at 7 pm and Sundays at 4 pm., weather permitting.

Go to the City of Toronto web site for the schedule or go to this URL:

Tom Tollefson, an architectural blacksmith fabricated this Music Pavilion, pictured above.




The late Anne Roberts, of Feir Mill Design in Omemee, Ontario, was the creator of the Maypole that you see here.




The crowds gathered here early to hear some aboriginal music this evening.




Julie Messervy designed the garden in collaboration with the landscape architects from the City's Parks, Forestry and Recreation Department.
Its design interprets, in nature, Bach's First Suite for an Unaccompanied Cello.

With each movement (within the Suite) a different section of the various grasses and flowers have been designed to correspond.
