Please join me at 6pm on Thursday, May 23, 2024, at the Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library, 120 St. George Street, Toronto, for the twelfth edition of 5 Poets Breaking into Song.
Hosted by George Elliott Clarke, this series presents a melding of poetry and music. Poets read from their work, followed by performances of those poems set to music.
This special edition of the series takes place in and is sponsored by the University of Toronto’s Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library.
Featured poets for the evening include myself, George Elliott Clarke, Antonia Facciponte, Keith Garebian, and Giovanna Riccio. Musical performances include composers Juliet Palmer and James Rolfe, singers Rebecca Cuddy and Alex Samaras, and pianist Helen Becque.
Featured poets and musicians will also read and perform the work of Leonard Cohen, Corrado Paina, and Eleni Zisimatos.
Refreshments are included.
