The popular Edwards Summer Music Series continues its Thursday evening lineup at the Toronto Botanical Garden, offering free live music set amidst lush natural greenery.
What to Expect
This week features the Medusa Quartet, a truly distinctive chamber-folk group reshaping the traditional string quartet format with global traditions, original compositions, and unique instrumentation. Expect to hear rare and historically revived instruments like the Swedish nyckelharpa and the Polish suka and fidel.
Making an Evening of It
Located at 777 Lawrence Ave E in North York, the gardens provide a tranquil escape from the urban rush. General seating is first-come, first-served on the lawn, so bringing your own lawn chair is recommended. Arrive early to wander the grounds, register for a pre-concert garden tour, or grab a bite at the Dandelion Cafe's outdoor BBQ.
