…at the Rex
Last week friends, Phil and Laurie invited us to join them to hear their favourite alternative jazz band, the Neon Eagle. What a treat, they were fantastic!
The following video was not from today’s performance but the venue is the same and it will give you some idea of the music we experienced. https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=bVu4Qxn1_ls&si=sdIgkzH7TH8OJvE_
…enjoying other people’s art
Last Thursday I enjoyed a concert in the afternoon put on by the Women’s Musical Club of Toronto. They featured the tenor Asitha Tennekoon with pianist Steven Philcox and a string quartet. Here is short description of this man’s musical journey into opera.

After this very moving concert I walked over WAAC and took in the the show featuring photography for this year’s Contact Show.
On Saturday Kevin and I drove to the Better Living Building and spent a couple hours exploring the beautiful art at the Toronto Art Project. It was fun meeting artists that we followed on Instagram and conversing with new artists.
On Saturday Kevin and I continued our our art filled weekend and took the train into the city and enjoyed an afternoon listening to a big band group of young people , the Angela Pincente Orchestra at the famous Rex.
The Rex is Toronto’s oldest jazz club.https://www.therex.ca/events/angela-pincente-large-ensemble-9gmm4-txnft-w799d-h3m7j
