The impact of music in public schools can provide access & remove barriers. Proud of my Gr. 12's who overcame COVID, quadmesters & virtual orchestras w/ resilience, passion, & soul. Bravo to all musicians last night for making it a magical evening! 🎶✨ #Grateful #Proud

@mslutdsb We are SO grateful to you @mslutdsb for inspiring your students to love music. Middle school teachers are the unsung heroes. You have known these kids since gr. 7 + now they get to work with you one last time before they graduate gr. 12 #grateful #thankful

Music for Life 2.0! Last night’s UTSC Concert was electric, amplifying the message of how music fosters community. Many students are studying for careers other than music, but are determined to find comfort & purpose through their continued musical journey. Bravo Tutti! @utscarts

This is “music for life!” More than 100 musicians spanning elementary through to adulthood came together in a concert celebrating the Joy of Strings! Thank you to the @SPOGreatMusic, @utscarts String Orchestra, @tdsb’s Sir Oliver Mowat C.I. & @SistemaToronto

@1SusanaCabral I feel so blessed to have such amazing musicians & supporters. It reminds me of the impact that music education has on fostering community and life-long friendships. I think I speak to the feelings of all our musicians’ family and friends - beyond proud & overwhelmingly inspired.

Year after year, I’m completely blown away by the talent this stage produces! Esther, you are a beast! Watching you play is captivating! @docleong you are inspiring and legendary. A true life changer! So incredibly grateful for your contagious gift of music. Unlike any other🎄

@mslutdsb @JosephHoweSr @JHansonTDSB @LC3_TDSB @TDSB_Arts I feel incredibly grateful for Mowat & Howe’s strong partnership. Thank you Ms. Lu & Ms. Hanson for all you do to inspire so many musicians. After so many years of absence in music, I am elated & hopeful at how fast & strong you have rebuilt and come back! @mslutdsb @JHansonTDSB

Can't feel my feet...but it was all worth it! #celebrating an amazing night of #music in the @JosephHoweSr and #Mowat community. We're so glad #instrumental music is up and running again! #ThankYou for all the wonderful support tonight! @JHansonTDSB @docleong @LC3_TDSB @TDSB_Arts

So proud and glad that Maya is being recognized with this prestigious honour for all the inspiring work that she has done, and continues to do, to make this world a better place. The positive impact of her work continues to be felt in the Mowat community.

@mslutdsb @UofTMusic As two @UofTMusic grads, we are so excited that Daniel will be starting his degree in Music Ed where we first learned to be music teachers.

Such a #proud #teacher moment to hear a former #student play a SOLO Concerto. #Bach future #musiceducation student at @UofTMusic in the making!! 👏👏👏👏

A VERY special #treat tonight from @docleong and #Mowat #musicians . A much needed IN-PERSON #concert. #Congratulations for a wonderful night of #music. Excerpt of the March from Carmen by Bizet 🎵🎶🎻🎻

One of my all-time #favourite #pieces Take Five. Lovely rendition by the Performing Arts Orchestra. @tdsb @TDSB_Music

Saying that I am proud is an understatement after our first in-person Mowat Music Concert in over 2.5 years! The night was filled with heartfelt stories & laughs, & it was also an emotional send off to our 2022 Grads, with whom we are so grateful to have made music. Bravo Tutti!

Thank you so much for your ongoing support for your former students @mslutdsb. These grads will be your first gr 7’s of many who have continued on to make music because of your nurture, passion, inspiration & belief in their musical abilities. #grateful
