This hip 60-member orchestra is comprised of young professional musicians from all over Québec, and led by conductor Yannick Nézet-Séguin. The orchestra’s mission is to democratize classical music, so aside from playing inside the swish Maison Symphonique at Place des Arts, it may also play Mahler or Haydn in churches or colleges in the city’s poorest neighborhoods for reduced admission.
Ticket prices start at $33 ($29 for those age 34 and under, and just $12 for youths). Buy from the box office round the corner.
