The Scarborough Philharmonic Orchestra's 2023/2024 Season is our 44th Season and we hope you will donate and give your support to maintaining Great Music in Scarborough.

Under the direction of Music Director and Conductor, Mr. Ronald Royer, this new season offers a combination of live music concerts as well as online digital content offered through our YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/SPOGreatMusic). You'll see from the music we've programmed for this new season, it represents the wonderfully diverse qualities of our Scarborough community.

Our 2023/2024 Season will begin Saturday, September 30, 2023, with a live concert, "Fun and Fanciful". The regular season consists of seven live concerts (https://www.spo.ca/season-line-up/).

Founded by conductor Clifford Poole in 1980, the SPO has evolved into one of Ontario's most impressive community orchestras. Under the leadership of Music Director and Conductor Ronald Royer, the last 10 years have seen the SPO rebuild and grow into an ensemble that delivers impressive performances.

The SPO has also released our second commercial CD, "Canadian Expedition" (available to stream on major platforms (https://music.apple.com/ca/album/canadian-expedition/1685083121), which is a companion to the SPO's first commercial CD (2017) "Canadian Panorama".

The SPO not only performs, it offers unique opportunities including Community Outreach activities and our "New Generation Composers Workshops", which support and promote young composers and artists. We also work to include other musical groups in our community. We also include guest artists, such as internationally-renowned violist, Máté Szücs, Alexander Panizza (piano), and emerging artists.

With strong leadership and dedicated musicians, the SPO looks forward to many more years of bringing Great Music to Scarborough and the GTA.

Thank you for your generous support!
