‘It’s so nice to see you’ — TSO and National Ballet welcome back in-person audiences for the first time in more than 20 months


The reverse occurred on Wednesday night as musicians of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra strode onstage for the launch of its 2021-2022 season, and for several compelling reasons. No one seemed bothered that the show started 20 minutes late because of the ridiculous length of time it took to check patrons’ vaccination passports. Unlike the TSO, which for the moment is keeping to 60 per cent capacity, the National Ballet is taking advantage of the latest guidelines to sell potentially to 100 per cent. There’s lots of room for speculation but, like music, these ballets are felt not through reason but by instinct. Regardless, they are both deeply absorbing works and the National Ballet’s dancers gave them all they had.
