Piano Plus - Tours

WHERE We Play

Piano Six travelled from coast to coast, south to Windsor and north to Nunavut. Piano Plus continues that breadth of scope, covering the country from coast to coast and points between. In 2006-2007, we do three tours north of the 53rd parallel - in Alberta, Manitoba, and Nunavut, in addition to visiting British Columbia, Quebec, Saskatchewan and Ontario.
