Celebrate Love with Molly Johnson
From Celebrate Loves website: “The world’s greatest love songs will be sung by some of Canada’s greatest voices, accompanied by top-flight musicians. Celebrate Love is the brainchild of musician, producer, broadcaster and impresario Andrew Craig, and is the realization of a decade-old dream: to create a Valentine’s Day event so compelling and beautiful that it would draw fans back year after year.
Molly Johnson, Canada’s first lady of jazz, headlines a stellar cast of vocalists, including Kellylee Evans (the 2007 Canadian Smooth Jazz Awards Female Vocalist of the Year), rising star DK Ibomeka, Indo-Canadian vocal sensation Kiran Ahluwalila, and Mary Jane Lamond, Canada’s preeminent interpreter of Gaelic songs from the East Coast. Add to this mix some of Toronto’s finest emerging vocal talents, the exquisite sounds of the Toronto-based cello quartet Lush, and the Celebrate Love Orchestra, and the result is magical.
Don’t think this show is just for couples! Featuring a unique blend of classic popular songs, rare musical gems from across the planet, poetry and reflections, Celebrate Love is the perfect Valentine’s Day activity for people in all stages of love: from new love, to unrequited love, to jilted love, to old love, to true love.”
