He is a distinguished recording artist, and has released CDs in the last three years to critical acclaim, as well as being featured on Bravo! and PBS. Michael was born in Toronto, graduated from the Curtis Institute of Music in Philly, and loves! working on his old Toyotas, following the Calgary Flames, and watching Grey's Anatomy. Michael spends his free time as full-time 2nd bassoonist of The Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra in Calgary.

"Michael Hope created excitement the moment he strode onto the stage. . . spine-tingling. . . a musical thunderbolt." Ocean City Sentinel, New Jersey

"A wonderful voice. . . . . I can tell within ten minutes whether a guy has it or not ~ this guy's got it!" Marvin Hamlisch.

Soprano Melina Moore was born in Buenos Aires,and lived and studied in New York at the Manhattan School of Music, Columbia and Julliard. She is a versatile high lyric coloratura and has appeared on stage in New York in operas and musicals, including Cats and Evita. She'll solo with the OSO in "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" and join Michael and the orchestra in "All I Ask of You", "Love Changes Everything" and other show-stoppers .
With Paul Moore, she teaches at Studio Moore in Vernon, when she is not away travelling and performing.

"Moore is a master of her art - lyrics enunciated, notes deliberate, and though she has the pipes to serenade the stars, she uses her volume strategically...the overall effect: delicious" Vancouver Sun
