About Us
The Ukulele Orchestra of Toronto (Ukes of T) is a learning ensemble led by Eve Goldberg. The group includes members with a wide variety of playing experience-- from advanced beginners all the way to veteran ukers! We play most music using written music notation (scores) and some music by ear. All our music has easier and harder parts so that everyone has a part that suits their playing abilities.
We rehearse in person on alternating Thursday nights in downtown Toronto, supplemented by online sectional rehearsals. Members can participate virtually by watching videos posted after each rehearsal on a private playlist. We perform at community events around the city.
Eve Goldberg, the founder and artistic director of Ukes of T, is a folk/roots performer and music educator based in Toronto. In addition to leading ukulele workshops at festivals, camps, and schools across Canada and the US, Eve is the founder of the Parkdale Ukulele Group, and regularly leads online ukulele classes on a variety of themes. You can find out more about her classes here.
