Distinguished – Refined – Timeless

Members present and past with the Montreal, Toronto and Quebec Symphonies bring you a Side-by-Side concert like you’ve never experienced before! For the first time ever, select members from across the country of National Youth Orchestra Canada’s chamber training program will join us in Stratford performing alongside established professionals for an un-conducted (yes, you read that correctly!) performance of Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony. It is going to be a joyous afternoon of music – and it is presented free for you!
