"Birth" is Canadian composer/conductor Alain Trudel's tribute to the people, of all cultures and origins, who make up our diverse nation. The piece (a part of TSO's year-long Canada Mosaic initiative) had its world premiere with our orchestra in January 2017 with Maestro Trudel himself at the podium.

The trumpet shall sound at the grand finale of the season! Michael Francis leads your TSO, the Toronto Mendelssohn Choir, and four outstanding vocalists in Handel’s Messiah—the most glorious music you’ll hear all year: December 16, 17, 19–21 at Roy Thomson Hall. | Toronto Symphony Orchestra

"Although we cannot be with you this year to celebrate as we usually do, we hope that our musical message can add joy and happiness to your celebration." - Alain Trudel Have a Happy Independence Day, from your Toledo Symphony! 🇺🇸 | Toledo Symphony Orchestra
