The 10 Best Symphonies in Canada, Canada

July 12, 2021 Augustus Redeker

World class skiing, decadent European style cuisine, ornamental cathedrals, peaceful island life…Canada is a patchwork of thriving cities and majestic wilderness. Montreal beckons travelers with its French charm and booming cultural landscape. In Toronto, the Art Gallery of Ontario is a vision of Frank Gehry architecture and national artistic treasures. The gleaming mountain ranges of Banff set a stunning backdrop for an exploration of the Canadian Rockies.

L'Orchestre Symphonique de Montreal (OSM)

Reviewed By Nomad796818 - Montreal, Canada

Guarantee of great sound, I am not an audiophile but it does not matter where you sit for a great sound experience. The place was built for sound. Choose wisely for seats since if you are seeing a large concert maybe choose a little higher. Lower loges are no better than central and I prefer to see the entire show. Red Army Choir is my next. Pre pay parking and pre reserve dinner at local places makes things simple.

Windsor Symphony Orchestra

Reviewed By NGDMJ - Moose Jaw, Canada

Oh my gosh, we attended the Broadway Pops performance at the Capital Theatre and was amazed at the talent that was presented in two short hours! The Windsor Symphony Orchestra consists of a large group of superb, outstanding musicians lead by a charismatic conductor. And if that wasn’t enough they partnered with the talented students in the St Clair College Music Theatre Program which put the whole production over the top! Be sure to attend the other productions offered by the Windsor Symphony Orchestra and when they have an event with the St Clair College Music Theatre students make sure you go! Circle it on your calendar with red marker and prepare to be totally amazed!

I went with two teenagers to see the symphony. They were performing works by American composers. The orchestra is an excellent group of very talented musicians. The venue has amazing acoustics and the program was very well thought out and orchestrated. Definitely a good place to go to see world class musicians

Enjoyed a wonderful evening listening to the symphony play the music from the Chorus Line. Second half of the program was the actual "Chorus Line" musical. Very well done. Parking around the concert hall is terrible, especially with all the ice on the sidewalks and streets. Really need another parkade in the area.
