Sound Mind:
A Classical Music Blog



  • John Terauds started at the Toronto Star as a freelance writer in 1988, and has been on staff since 1997. He began writing on classical music in 2001, and has been the full-time classical music critic since 2005.

    He is also the organist and choir director at St. Peter's Anglican Church, a parish founded in 1863 in downtown Toronto.

    If he's not listening to, writing about or playing music, it means he's either asleep, unconscious, walking his dog -- or all of the above.
