Hidden Gems Toronto
Welcome to the Hidden Gems Toronto podcast. After retiring from a career in Communications, Tom and Sharon Scanlan wanted to give back to the city they love. Now in its fourth season, they continue their quest to shine a light on fascinating people and places that fly under the radar but are a vital part of our city's fabric.

THE LITTLE MUSIC SCHOOL THAT GREW
Meet Charleen Beard. Her accordion playing father decided in 1957 to teach music lessons out of his basement. Since that opening, more than 10,000 students have walked through the doors of the Lippert Music Center.
Charleen, who now presides over the business, gives us her take on the family business and shares her insights into the joy of learning to play a musical instrument.
