At our concert last week, we were grateful to share so many beautiful arrangements with you.

The performance featured the premiere of Emily Taub’s O Death. During our evening concert, we were honoured to present a commemorative piece recognizing this arrangement as the winning submission in Avanti’s inaugural Composer-Arranger Competition. Thank you to Emily for sharing their artistry and for a stunning solo performance.

Thank you for a wonderful season!
