It is with regret that Miloš has had to cancel his remaining concerts for the rest of the season on his doctor’s advice due to a physical condition that has affected the movement in his arm. The world premiere of the new guitar concerto written for him by esteemed composer Howard Shore will be rescheduled for February 2019 at the National Arts Centre. All the artists involved, including Howard Shore, conductor Alexander Shelley and the National Arts Centre Orchestra, wish Miloš a very steady recovery and a successful return to performing.

Unwind at the end of your week with our wildly popular casual Fridays!

The building is really coming along!
Unfortunately due to construction limitations, we will no longer be able to sell Casual Fridays tapas like we have in the past. We apologize for this inconvenience but promise that the construction pains we feel now will be well worth it when we welcome you back into the newly expanded NAC.
