FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
A 30-Year Reinvention Story of Cultural Depth, Discipline, Artistry & Resilience
Following the release of her book Love Is Light: Transmute Fear Into Love and its companion symphonic pop single Love Is Light, Canadian-Romanian pop/classical singer-songwriter and author Angelica Ganea launches a tour of Chapters/Indigo locations across the GTA, combining book signings with live performance.
TORONTO, ON — March 5, 2026
A performer since childhood, Angelica Ganea immigrated from Romania to Canada at 24 speaking very little English. After building a life from scratch, she spent decades honing her craft; writing books on habit-building and wellness, creating and illustrating a children’s book, studying piano and music theory in her forties, and teaching herself orchestration and music production in her early fifties to fully realize the cinematic sound she envisioned. Today, thirty years later, Angelica is living proof that creativity has no expiration date.
Her work reflects what can happen when discipline meets artistry. Her story is reinvention by design: always learning, always creating, always grounded in authenticity. “This is what thirty years of not giving up looks like,” she says with a laugh.
The "Love Is Light World", as Angelica calls it, was born from a deeply personal spiritual experience. The book—also illustrated by Angelica—is a modern fairy tale for the child within us, available in three editions: English, English/French, and Romanian/English. The song—written, orchestrated, and produced by her—blends orchestral depth with cinematic storytelling and was written in both English (Love Is Light released February 17, 2026) and Romanian (Aripi de Lumină to be released July 14, 2026).
Both the book and the music share one message: choose love over fear, and remember that everything is worthy of compassion—even the parts of ourselves we don’t always understand. Together, they invite children and adults alike to embrace compassion and cultivate acceptance of ourselves and one another.
But Love Is Light represents more than a book and a song; it reflects three decades of rebuilding identity, mastering new disciplines, and refusing to let creative vision fade. Early readers and listeners have described the work as deeply emotional and healing:
“After reading Love Is Light I cried for hours… I felt such relief.” — Barb Norman (Ontario)
“I was absolutely blown away by the divine intricacy of this children's tale.” — Greg G., MD
Angelica’s Chapters/Indigo tour begins March 14, with stops across the GTA through May. Each event features a meet-and-greet, book signing, and live singing—including classic song selections and Angelica’s original Love Is Light.
