Thank You

Thank you to everyone who joined us for an unforgettable evening celebrating music and The Royal Conservatory!

From the legendary lineup of Canadian artists who graced our stage in Koerner Hall – Paul Shaffer & Friends, Rufus Wainwright, Amanda Marshall, Jens Lindemann, and Dragonette – to our incredible student performers from The Glenn Gould School and The Taylor Academy, topped off with bumping tunes from DJ MelBoogie, the excitement and energy didn’t stop all night!

A Most Welcome Surprise!

We are deeply honoured to recognize a generous gift commitment of $5 million from Rayla and George Myhal to The Royal Conservatory, announced during The Royal Occasion. This remarkable pledge will inspire and match future donations to support the RCM’s ability to advance the transformative effect that music and the arts have on society. Thank you!
