Arts In The Parks Event

Modal music in the park

This summer, Labyrinth Ontario reignites its Modal Music in the Parks series with 4 outdoor concerts in RV Burgess park. 

For the first performance in this series, we are delighted to present the Iranian Music Trio. This group is composed of artists deeply immersed in classical Iranian music: Soheil Sadeghi (Kamanche), Sasan Salaseli (Tonbak), and Mehrdad Jafari Raad (Tar).

August 16 – 12:30PM
RV Burgess Park
46 Thorncliffe Park Dr

Don’t miss this series of performances highlighting cultures from Europe, Western China, through Central and South Asia. Each is distinctive, but related through the modal music system. Labyrinth Ontario actively performs this centuries old practice, while renewing it through contemporary interpretations and new compositions.

Modal Music in the Parks is kindly supported by Toronto Arts Foundation’s Arts in the Parks, Toronto Arts Council, and Toronto’s Parks, Forestry and Recreations.
