“One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar.” – Helen Keller
In May 2023, the TCC presented its program "Musical Vision" about blind musicians and composers who did not let their visual handicap prevent them from composing and performing great music. Such was the richness of material found on this topic that more of it will be presented in our 2024 fundraiser to support the Toronto Chamber Consort section lead program. Our intimate song evening will feature German lute songs, Austrian lieder, lute solos from Italy and Spain, and even modinhas played on the streets of 19th century Rio de Janiero by the mixed-race Brazilian Joaquim Manoel da Câmara.
