Humber Noon Hour Concerts Presents Emily Steinwall Quartet

Humber Music welcomes singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Emily Steinwall and her quartet to the Lakeshore Auditorium stage. 

When Emily Steinwall emerged on Toronto's jazz scene as a saxophone player, she was named one of CBC’s “35 best Canadian jazz artists under 35” at only 22 years old. She was also the recipient of JAZZ.FM91’s prestigious Mary Alice Stewart Award in 2017, and the following year was named the Prince Edward County Jazz Festival’s 2018 Rising Young Star, all within her first couple of years since graduating from Humber’s Bachelor of Music program. 

With a new focus on songwriting, Emily formed a band to perform her original music, a style perhaps best described as "singer songwriter fused with jazz". The group quickly carved out a top shelf reputation in Toronto’s live music scene with their transcendent, psychedelic and bold performances. 

On November 8, Steinwall will be joined by Jackson Steinwall on bass, and fellow Humber grads Joseph Martel on guitar, and Andrew McCarthy on drums, to perform music from Welcome to the Garden, her debut album which won the SOCAN Songwriter Prize in 2022. 

Emilly Steinwall has performed on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, the Late Show with Stephen Colbert and Austin City Limits, and performed on world renowned stages, including Madison Square Garden, Scotiabank Arena (formerly the ACC), and at MTV’s European Music Awards.

Humber Music is excited to welcome her back!

Dr. Justine Dembo

Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) is currently available to mentally capable Canadian adults with serious and incurable illnesses, diseases, and disabilities, who meet very specific eligibility criteria. Individuals who would request MAID solely on the basis of mental illness, however, are currently excluded by the law, and this exclusion is set to be lifted in March, 2024. Debates on this issue have been highly polarized and at times vitriolic, both in the public sphere and in medical, legal, and bioethics communities. In this talk, Dr. Justine Dembo will explore the many sides of this debate in a way that is intended to encourage critical thinking about MAID and mental illness.

For more info and fall speaker line-up, check out the President's Lecture Series website.

Join the Consent Peer Education Program in our Online Speaker Spotlight series with survivor, educator, and speaker, Cayla Meredith!

You will learn:

  • What complex trauma is and what it impacts
  • How to use the knowledge of what has been impacted to take your first step in healing

  • How community impacts healing and why community is important long-term
  • You'll be offered a simple framework to refer back to as you continue forward in healing
