CONCERT SERIES

The Kingston Road Village Concert Series is the brainchild of Tim Dawson,
 a (now retired) bassist with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra 
and member of Kingston Road United church.

Four to six concerts a year are presented at Kingston Road United Church,
a central location in the Kingston Road Village, and an amazing acoustic space.

All concerts feature exciting professional musicians performing music that ranges from traditional classical to the avant garde.

Everyone is Welcome.
