WSO Celebrates the Nonsuch
Tickets https://tix.extremetix.com/webtix/1356?salesRef
The Nonsuch was built in England to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the Hudson’s Bay Company in 1970. It is considered one of the finest replicas in the world and sailed 14,000 kilometres of salt and fresh water before finding her home at the Museum in 1974.
This year the Nonsuch Gallery is being updated with new immersive experiences, artifacts, and stories. The reopening of the Nonsuch Gallery coincides with the 350th anniversary of the voyage of the original Nonsuch to Hudson Bay in 1668.
WSO musicians will perform on the deck of the Nonsuch and around the ship in a program of water music from the pens of George Frideric Handel and other great composers!
The Museum Galleries will be open to explore before and/or after each performance. Doors to the Nonsuch Gallery will open approximately 30 minutes before each performance.

Lido Pimienta is a Toronto-based, Colombian-born interdisciplinary musician and artist-curator. Lido's latest LP, La Papessa (2016), charts an evolution from her debut LP, Color (2010), an album full of colorful landscapes. Winner of the 2017 Polaris Music Prize, La Papessa describes how Lido has found her independence as a woman and as an artist who refuses to fit notions of what a pop Latina artist ought to be.
Influenced by the desert of Columbia to the bustling cityscape of Toronto, La Papessa takes listeners on a musical journey from traditional Afro-Colombian percussion to global bass and darker avant-garde electronic sounds.

The mixture of pop, jazz, soul, folk, and indie music is a sound that is undoubtedly hers.
