Program Highlights
The music of Broadway includes such a wealth of memorable songs. Sonja and the band will take you on a journey through years of golden classics including selections from West Side Story, My Fair Lady, and some of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s best. Come and enjoy the timeless songs from Broadway.
Tap Into Jazz With Sonja!
Join us for a jazz concert which will knock the socks off any jazz or tap dancing fan. Sonja, along with her jazz trio (Nevin Campbell, George Mitchell and Rich Brisco) will be playing some of your favourite jazz standards while Robin Teeuwen and select members of the Toronto Rhythm Initiative, take to the hardwood and delight your ears and eyes through the art of tap dancing. Joining these Canadian tap dancers is Jessie Sawyers, a beautifully musical tap dancer from Seattle, Washington.
Sonja To Guest With The London Citadel Band
On April 27th, Sonja will be appearing at Wolf Hall with the impeccable London Citadel Band on their annual "Contrasts" concert for an evening of inspirational music-making.
Led by their gifted bandmaster, John Lam, the LCB will thrill you with a sound that is guarenteed to give you goosebumps. The group features some of the city's most talented musicians and has toured all over the world since it's inception in 1883.
Sonja is no stranger to the band, having been their special guest , along with her jazz trio, at their annual Carol service a few years ago. However, this will be the first time that Sonja has sung with the band and she is looking forward to combining forces with their big brass sound. Sonja will also perform several selections with her jazz trio to round out the program.
