Sound Investment Campaign

We are excited to be bringing you our Sound Investment Campaign marking the beginning of a new era for the Guelph Symphony Orchestra.

The GSO has been a success story since its founding in 2001, offering area residents an affordable opportunity to enjoy an exciting variety of classical and contemporary music. Comprised of talented musicians from the region, the orchestra performs regularly in the splendid River Run Centre in downtown Guelph.

As the GSO enters its second decade, foremost in our minds is developing an even stronger partnership with, and commitment to our community: more programs engaging youth, supporting community initiatives and outreach, expanding our audience and concerts, helping develop the next generation of professional musicians, all the while bringing the world’s great music to you with exceptional guest artists and guest conductors.

Because ticket sales and government grants account for only a portion of our costs, the support of many generous individuals and corporations is instrumental to our success. By becoming a GSO donor and investing in quality of life through culture you are helping guarantee the future of your orchestra, sustaining our artistic excellence and ensuring a legacy for the next generation.

Please join us and be a part of our Sound investment Campaign.

We need your support. Your contribution is vital.
