The Jim and Charlotte Norcop Voice Studies Endowment Fund was established in 2003 by Jim Norcop to enrich the art of the song recital through competition, performances, composition, master classes, or any other means to advance and share the art form. The Faculty of Music wishes to acknowledge the generosity and vision of Jim Norcop in his championship and support of art song as a form of artistic expression and pedagogical training. We are privileged to have this endowment in place and pledge ourselves to its ongoing stewardship.


We wish to acknowledge this land on which the University of Toronto operates. For thousands of years it has been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and the Mississaugas of the Credit. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.

As part of the Faculty’s commitment to improving Indigenous inclusion, we call upon all members of our community to start/continue their personal journeys towards understanding and acknowledging Indigenous peoples’ histories, truths and cultures. Visit indigenous.utoronto.ca to learn more.
