Adiós a un Viejo Amor, a bespoke composition for the MSO created by Colombian-Canadian composer Felipe Téllez’, is a Zamba Romántica inspired by Argentinian folklore, and relies on translating the rhythms in these styles from a pop instrumentation into a symphonic one. Téllez has written music for the Bogotá Philharmonic, the Colombian National Symphony Orchestra, the San Rafael Symphonic Band in Spain, the University of Toronto Symphony Orchestra, and the Canadian Studio Symphony.

Guest artist Romulo Delgado will join the orchestra to perform Nessun Dorma, one of the best-known arias in all of opera. Romulo is an operatic tenor, composer, world music multi-instrumentalist, vocal coach and adjudicator. He was a region finalist at the Hans Gabor Belvedere International Opera Competition in Vienna, Austria and trained in Toronto at the Royal Conservatory Music. His versatility as a performer has enchanted audiences all over North America and Europe.
