The Poetry of VTSI

The TSI Poetry Garden
Inspired by the The Toronto Music Garden

In 1999 internationally renowned cellist, Yo-Yo Ma, collaborated with architect Julie Moir Messervy , to design the Toronto Music Garden: a park inspired by Bach’s Suite No. 1 in G Major, for unaccompanied cello. It is a wonderful addition to the culture and spirit of Toronto, the home of TSI. This playlist is a mix of contributors in our own TSI Poetry Garden.
