Mississauga Symphony Orchestra

Read Profile

The Mississauga Symphony Orchestra (MSO), with a combination of 90+ community musicians and professional section leads, has earned the reputation as the best hybrid orchestra in Canada. The MSO has been active in Mississauga for an astonishing 50 years, and is now designated as one of Mississauga's six pillar institutions of arts, culture, and heritage. Based out of Hammerson Hall, a world-class performing arts facility located within the Living Arts Centre, the MSO provides performance opportunities and personal development to talented amateurs while combining the strands of excellence and education by assisting young professional performers and composers through solo performance opportunities, commissions, and mentoring.

Under the direction of maestro Denis Mastromonaco since 2013, the orchestra offers entertaining and increasingly sophisticated programs from classical and popular repertoires of symphonic music, performed to the highest artistic standards. With the inclusion of the Mississauga Symphony Youth Orchestra in 2013, the organization has become the centre of classical music in Mississauga, built around the pillars of music education, performance, and entertainment.
