The Sunshine Orchestra with Special Guest A.R. Rahman
Presented by the Glenn Gould Foundation
The only thing better than an evening with the dazzling Sunshine Orchestra is an evening with the Orchestra and its visionary founder: legendary composer and Academy Award winner A.R. Rahman, live on stage. The Sunshine Orchestra is comprised of exceptionally gifted young musicians from under resourced communities who receive world-class training at A.R. Rahman’s K.M. Music Conservatory in Chennai, India. Under his mentorship, they have transformed into a powerhouse ensemble, performing with passion and purpose.
They receive free musical training that endows them with confidence and life skills, including a strong sense of teamwork. They explore both Indian and Western traditions, with a mission as inspiring as their sound: use music as a force for good. Since its founding in 2008,. The Orchestra has performed around the world, including a special concert at the United Nations, earning acclaim for their moving story.
Now, for the first time in Mississauga they will take the stage alongside A.R. Rahman, one of the great music masters of our time, whose list of credits includes scores for 145 films including the music for Slumdog Millionaire.
