With this special Canadian premiere performance by the world-renowned Lara Somos Ensemble, we pay tribute to the 50th anniversary of El Sistema, the revolutionary music education program that has changed the lives of children and youth across the planet.
This extraordinary vocal-instrumental ensemble was trained in El Sistema’s Special Education Program, which empowers young musicians with a wide range of hearing, visual and cognitive differences. The super-virtuosity of Lara Somos’s close harmony vocalists and multi-instrumentalists breaks barriers with every note, proving that that music knows no limits.
Having performed on global stages with such luminaries as the Sir Simon Rattle, Andrea Bocelli, Juan Diego Flórez, Plácido Domingo and Itzhak Perlman, Lara Somos now brings their boundary-defying artistry to Canada for the very first time.
Don’t miss this rare and moving opportunity to witness the transformative power of music through a performance that radiates joy, unity and excellence.
