Concert Description

Join the Rolston String Quartet and guest Violist Rory McLeod for a family-friendly concert that embraces neurodiversity and disability. This special concert, presented in collaboration with Toronto Summer Music, includes a performance of Seven Miniatures, an original piece of music written by seven composers who identify as being neurodivergent of having a disability. This concert will also feature a team of therapy dogs, provided by One Health Partners.
