A Thousand And One Nights

North York Concert Orchestra, now in our 50th season, is a semi-professional orchestra of capable, committed musicians dedicated to bringing affordable, live classical music to our North York community.

Many of our musicians are music professionals – most, though, have occupations far removed from music. We come from a multitude of ethnic backgrounds. While many of us were not born in Canada, the international language of music brings us together – we strive to share the love of music with you, our audience, and to enrich your lives.

While we focus our endeavours on our public concert series, we do not forget those less able to attend our concerts. Many of our musicians volunteer to collaborate in small ensembles, bringing chamber music to community centres, schools and seniors’ residences.

Our annual youth concerto competition is a showcase for young emerging artists, giving them a rare opportunity to perform with a full-size orchestra.

NYCO attracts a diverse and talented membership of over fifty musicians whose ages span over six decades. We are complemented by a volunteer concert production team. A professional music director and professional string section leaders provide the guidance, training and inspiration for us to achieve excellence.
