SERENATA MUSIC CONTINUES ITS COLLABORATION WITH LONDON SYMPHONIA AND THE DON WRIGHT FACULTY OF MUSIC.
We want to remind you that Serenata Music is still active in promoting good music for London and district audiences. Since the COVID epidemic we have reduced our efforts to produce regular chamber music concerts and concentrated on supporting outstanding guest artists with the London Symphonia and the Don Wright Faculty of Music. The concerts with Stewart Goodyear, James Ehnes, Janina Fialkowsaka, and Forbidden Music as well as the Musicians from Marlboro were all great successes.
We continue with two concerts at the Metropolitan United Church in 2025. On February 1, Rei Hotoda will conduct the London Symphonia in A New Moon Celebration featuring Scott St. John, violin and Lina Cao, gusheng. On April 5 Tania Miller will conduct the London Symphonia with guest violinist Kerson Leong in a performance of the Beethoven violin concerto.
The Musicians from Marlboro will return on February 14 to the von Kuster Hall, Western, for their third appearance under our sponsorship.
We look forward to seeing you soon. We encourage you to tell your friends to follow us at serenatamusic.com where we list all the interesting musical events in the London area for 2024-25. They can receive our email notices if they send us a note to serenatamusic@gmail.com or call us at 519-433 8332.

WE ANNOUNCE OUR 21ST YEAR
Serenata Music provides London with a varied program in 2025.
A New Moon Celebration with the London Symphonia on February 1 will be a unique experience. Conductor Rei Hodota, narrator David Kwan, Lina Cao, guzheng, Scott St. John, violin, and the rising stars of the London Youth Symphony will present an extravagantly colourful collection of stories and music that evoke the Moon, the stars, and the way they shine upon the cycles of our lives.
On April 5 we will be fortunate to hear rising international star Kerson Leung play the Beethoven violin concerto as well as the Symphony No.2 by Sibelius. The London Symphonia will be conducted by Tania Miller, recently appointed the artistic director of the Brott Music Festival.
The Musicians of Malboro will grace the stage of the Don Wright Faculty of Music on February 14 for the third time under Serenata Music sponsorship. We look forward to their enthusiastic performance of both modern and classic repertoire.
Look for mote details as we approach the above concert dates.
