SUMMARY:Mt. Joy 2026: Celebrating 10 Years Of Mt. Joy
DESCRIPTION:Since forming in 2016\, the Philadelphia native indie-rock band — comprised of Matt Quinn (vocals\, guitar)\, Sam Cooper (guitar)\, Jackie Miclau (keys\, piano)\, Sotiris Eliopoulos (drums)\, and Michael Byrnes (bass) — has put in their 10\,000 hours preparing for this very moment. \nAfter nearly a decade of touring and recording three critically acclaimed albums (2018’s Mt. Joy\, 2020’s Rearrange Us\, and 2022’s Orange Blood)\, the five-piece reached new heights in 2024\, selling out New York’s Madison Square Garden\, The Greek Theater in Los Angeles\, Denver’s Red Rocks Amphitheater\, and more; their 70-date North American and European headline tour also sold more than 180\,000 tickets. \nMt. Joy’s momentum stemmed from years of hard work cultivating an unforgettable stage presence and their laser focus on organic growth.

SUMMARY:Black and Bluegrass Festival
DESCRIPTION:Black & Bluegrass Productions was founded in 2013 as a means to promote shows for bands who play a fusion of genres like Folk\, Bluegrass and Punk Rock. The goal in mind was to create a scene with artists from in and around Ottawa that invoked this brand of off the beaten path\, nomadic street music. The result has been a decade of bringing some of the most amazing independent performers from across Canada together to celebrate both what makes them ideal to share a stage with one another and the unique way in which they meld and bend genres.

SUMMARY:Makoto Ozone Plays Rachmaninoff
DESCRIPTION:After the sudden death of the young artist Viktor Hartmann\, his close friend Modeste Mussorgsky translated 10 of his paintings into a piano suite of wide-ranging emotion: Pictures at an Exhibition. Experience this gallery-hopping work in an arrangement for full orchestra by Maurice Ravel—whose vivid\, colourful orchestrations illuminate Hartmann’s scenes of medieval castles\, bustling open-air markets\, and the moonlit flight of the Slavic witch Baba Yaga. \nSergei Rachmaninoff’s ravishing Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini pays homage to Niccolò Paganini—the 19th-century Italian violinist who was so talented\, audiences believed he had sold his soul to the devil. Brace yourself for demonic dances and romantic serenades in this wild roller coaster ride for solo piano and orchestra when the “thrilling\, virtuosic” (The New York Times) pianist Makoto Ozone makes his Southam Hall debut. \nAnd opening the program is Alissa Firsova’s Die Windsbraut (The Bride of the Wind)\, a stormy orchestral poem that conjures the passionate love affair between artist Oskar Kokoschka and composer Alma Mahler.

SUMMARY:Makoto Ozone Plays Rachmaninoff
DESCRIPTION:After the sudden death of the young artist Viktor Hartmann\, his close friend Modeste Mussorgsky translated 10 of his paintings into a piano suite of wide-ranging emotion: Pictures at an Exhibition. Experience this gallery-hopping work in an arrangement for full orchestra by Maurice Ravel—whose vivid\, colourful orchestrations illuminate Hartmann’s scenes of medieval castles\, bustling open-air markets\, and the moonlit flight of the Slavic witch Baba Yaga. \nSergei Rachmaninoff’s ravishing Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini pays homage to Niccolò Paganini—the 19th-century Italian violinist who was so talented\, audiences believed he had sold his soul to the devil. Brace yourself for demonic dances and romantic serenades in this wild roller coaster ride for solo piano and orchestra when the “thrilling\, virtuosic” (The New York Times) pianist Makoto Ozone makes his Southam Hall debut. \nAnd opening the program is Alissa Firsova’s Die Windsbraut (The Bride of the Wind)\, a stormy orchestral poem that conjures the passionate love affair between artist Oskar Kokoschka and composer Alma Mahler.

SUMMARY:David Suzuki’s Playlist: w/ NAC Orchestra\, in association with Why Not Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Featuring a playlist curated and hosted live by David Suzuki\, this special NAC Orchestra concert brings music and meaning together in a powerful new way. \nNow 90 years old\, David Suzuki is one of Canada’s most respected public intellectuals and environmental activists\, and has spent decades helping people rethink their relationship with nature\, science\, and the future of our planet. For this event\, he steps into the role of musical curator\, sharing a personal selection of works that have inspired his thinking\, his activism\, and his sense of wonder. \nPerformed by the National Arts Centre Orchestra\, the program traces an emotional and sonic journey through music connected to landscape\, fragility\, awe\, and renewal. With Suzuki guiding the audience throughout the evening\, each piece becomes part of a larger story about listening more closely\, seeing more clearly\, and reconnecting with the natural world around us. \nA rare chance to experience a live orchestral event shaped by one of Canada’s most influential voices\, and to hear how music and nature resonate together on the same stage.

SUMMARY:MÁM Teaċ Daṁsa │Michael Keegan-Dolan
DESCRIPTION:The works of Irish choreographer Michael Keegan-Dolan are defined by feeling and collective connection.

At a gathering where music casts a spell\, dancers swirl\, swoon and surrender in an atmosphere charged with spirit of myth and mythology. \nMÁM is steeped in the landscape and culture of Ireland’s West Kerry. The title reflects a meeting place\, one where audience and performers share a deep engagement with their imagination.

SUMMARY:Bring Me The Horizon

With multi-platinum releases\, billions of streams\, and sold-out tours across more than 50 countries\, their reach is both global and subcltural. Beyond music\, their world extends into fashion\, gaming\, and visual art\, operating as a fl uid creative project as much as a band\, and continually redefi ning what contemporary music looks\, sounds\, and feels like.

SUMMARY:The Black Keys
DESCRIPTION:The story of Ohio Players—The Black Keys ’twelfth studio album and a record unlike any other in their long ride through deep blues and soul power—begins on a Saturday in February 2003. Singer-guitarist Dan Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney were on the road supporting their debut album\, 2002’s The Big Come Up\, opening for Sleater-Kinney at New York’s Roseland Ballroom\, when the headliners invited them to a party after the gig: the traditional bash following the broadcast of Saturday Night Live with the TV show’s cast and guests.\n“This is insane—of course\, we want to go\,” Carney recalls. “We said ‘How are you getting in?‘ ’Our friend Beck played tonight.’”\nAuerbach and Carney were school friends in Akron\, Ohio\, not yet a band\, when Beck’s 1993 single “Loser” —a landmark fusion of Delta blues\, hip-hop churn\, and post-punk lyricism—hit them like a bomb. “His aesthetic was\nincredible\,” Auerbach says today. “He wore his influences on his sleeve\, and we learned from that. There was someone showing us a way to go.”
