KOZAK SIROMAHA BIG CANADIAN TOUR 2025

KOZAK SIROMAHA BIG CANADIAN TOUR 2025
Kozak Siromaha is coming to Canada! He's bringing the spirit of ancient Ukraine into today’s world — where the steppe sings, the saber strikes, and truth speaks through song. His music feels like a modern retelling of ancient stories: honest, powerful, and real. He’s not performing a role — he’s carrying on a tradition.
This fall, Kozak Siromaha will come to Canada not only with music, but with a powerful charitable mission. Special auction items are already on their way, and at each show, charity auctions will raise funds in support of Ukraine’s Defense Forces.

Early Bird tickets are on sale now — don’t miss out!
Ukrainian words and songs — live, and alive. All ages are welcome. Bring the whole family!

Consortium Aurora Borealis Concert - Clarinet Quintets with Peter Shackleton

Consortium Aurora Borealis Concert - Clarinet Quintets with Peter Shackleton

CONSORTIUM AURORA BOREALIS CONCERT SAT. SEPT. 27, 2025

Consortium Aurora Borealis presents an exquisite concert of Classic and Romantic chamber music, which we know you will enjoy! Peter Shackleton, Principal Clarinettist of the Thunder Bay Symphony Orchestra since 1988, is joined by violinists Katie Stevens and James Moat, violist Patrick Horn, and cellist Peter Cosbey, to perform Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s and Carl Maria von Weber’s celebrated quintets for clarinet and strings, beloved staples of that instrument’s repertoire. 

Mozart’s Clarinet Quintet in A major, K. 581 was composed in 1789, the same year as the French Revolution. It is marvellously melodic, mellow, and at times mirthful. Weber’s Grand Quintet in B-flat major, Opus 34 for clarinet and string quartet is brilliantly concerto-like, a solo with string accompaniment. It was completed in 1815, the year Napoleon was defeated at Waterloo. Both quintets were written for specific virtuoso clarinettists who were good friends of the composer. Mozart’s elegant String Quartet in D minor, K. 421 leads off our concert. There will be a ballot draw at intermission for a gift certificate for two tickets to any Magnus Theatre production within their 2025-2026 season!

The concert is generously sponsored by Saverio Veltri: TD Wealth.

Saturday, September 27, 7:30 PM
St. Paul’s United Church, 349 Waverley Street, Thunder Bay

CONSORTIUM AURORA BOREALIS CONCERT: J. S. BACH AND SONS

Consortium Aurora Borealis Concert: J. S. Bach and Sons

In 2025 Consortium Aurora Borealis and the rest of the musical world mark the 275th anniversary of the death of Johann Sebastian Bach. This towering figure of the Baroque surpassed all others during this period, and was venerated throughout history as one of the greatest composers of all time. Composer Richard Wagner called Bach “the most stupendous miracle in all music!”

We therefore invite you to come out for “J. S. Bach and Sons”, an evening of eloquent chamber music. We’ll hear gorgeous solos, duets, and trios by this supreme genius of music, as well as by two of his composer-sons, Wilhelm Friedemann Bach and Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. Both sons were keyboard virtuosos, wrote expressively and innovatively in their own unique voices, enjoyed renown, and bridged Baroque and Classical styles.

Flutists Penelope Clarke, Doris Dungan, and cellist Peter Cosbey reunite, joined by special guest harpsichordist Borys Medicky of Toronto. Medicky concertizes extensively as harpsichord soloist and chamber musician, as well as being a church musician and a sought-after harpsichord technician and maker. There will be a ballot draw at intermission for a gift certificate to The Cheese Encounter.

The concert is generously sponsored by Elizabeth Ganiatsos

CONSORTIUM AURORA BOREALIS CONCERT SAT. SEPT. 6, 2025

A Cello Celebration!

Consortium Aurora Borealis is back in action and is most pleased to present ‘A Cello Celebration’ for your enjoyment, a special concert with an all-Italian theme. Cellists Peter Cosbey and Marc Palmquist join forces to charm you as they open our 47th concert season, performing duos and solos by 18th-century Italian composers Luigi Boccherini, Salvatore Lanzetti, Giovanni Battista Cirri, and Joseph Dall’Abaco, who were all remarkable virtuoso cellists in their day. Both virtuosic and lyrical elements will be explored, as the unique timbres and character of the cello are exploited. We also include music by famed composers Vivaldi and Viotti, as we move stylistically  through the Baroque to the Classical period. 

Marc recently retired after holding the position of Principal Cellist of the Thunder Bay Symphony Orchestra for the past forty years. He has performed with Consortium since 1985, when he first arrived in town. Nor is Peter a stranger to Consortium, where he continues to enthrall audiences with his virtuosity, rich tone, and expressive style. Both performers bring their considerable gifts and love for their instrument. We are delighted that they will share our concert platform in this tribute to the cello, even as they have shared musically as stand partners in the orchestra over the years.  There will be a ballot draw at intermission for a $75 gift card to Giorg Cucina e Barra, in keeping with our Italian theme!

This concert is co-sponsored by Lakehead Printing; Tbaytel; Hilda Postenka; Jaro Kotalik and Louisa Pedri.

New Noise Productions Presents: Moosef**ker, Ontario
Aug
16

New Noise Productions Presents: Moosef**ker, Ontario

New Noise Productions is pleased to present this world premiere production of the play MOOSEF**KER, ONTARIO, written by Andrew Paulsen, and directed by Stefani Celine.

A Northern Ontario Gothic comedy, MOOSEF**KER, ONTARIO, is what the locals call Moosewater, Ontario, a small town about a ten-hour drive North of Toronto. Jason, who goes by his self-given rap persona 2Ble-Weed, works the day shift as a manager at Tim Hortons, while rapping at night at the local Legion. Together with his girlfriend Tiffany, they decide to blackmail his estranged father to provide enough cash to support a trip to Sudbury to record his debut album.

MOOSEF**KER, ONTARIO, is gleefully off the rails, chaotic and full of a fast-paced frenzy of over-the-top violence and eccentric characters. Drawing from a vast array of experiences growing up in small-town North-Western Ontario, it is a ridiculous and loving homage to this place we call home while embracing some of our more seedy and trashy qualities, offering perspective alongside laughs.

MOOSEF**KER, ONTARIO, ultimately is a raunchy, entertaining punk-rock comedy about small-town North Ontario life.

New Noise Productions Presents: Moosef**ker, Ontario

New Noise Productions is pleased to present this world premiere production of the play MOOSEF**KER, ONTARIO, written by Andrew Paulsen, and directed by Stefani Celine.

A Northern Ontario Gothic comedy, MOOSEF**KER, ONTARIO, is what the locals call Moosewater, Ontario, a small town about a ten-hour drive North of Toronto. Jason, who goes by his self-given rap persona 2Ble-Weed, works the day shift as a manager at Tim Hortons, while rapping at night at the local Legion. Together with his girlfriend Tiffany, they decide to blackmail his estranged father to provide enough cash to support a trip to Sudbury to record his debut album.
