(Toronto) — Internationally acclaimed Canadian soprano, Measha Brueggergosman, will debut music from her new album, Measha Jazz, as well as sing beloved standards for an exclusive Facebook Live event in support of Heart & Stroke.
Measha will also be talking about what it's like to live with heart disease during the pandemic, what Heart & Stroke wants people living with these conditions to know, and what it’s doing to support its communities.
