It's 1906, and Violet is now in her thirties. In letters to family and friends, she writes of the challenges presented by her busy household and five children, the grief of losing loved ones and the pleasures of summer in ever-changing Muskoka. And she is blooming in her role as the wife of Frank Welsman, the celebrated conductor of the newly established Toronto Symphony Orchestra.
Imagine Violet Blooming paints a vivid picture of the musical life of Toronto but there is also a generous helping of social history in this tale of middle-class life.”
