Scarborough Philharmonic Orchestra

The Scarborough Philharmonic (SPO) is committed to serving the community of Scarborough by assuming a leadership role in the artistic life of this vibrant city within a city with a population of 625,000 people. We intend to accomplish this by further expanding our reach into the diverse and varied sectors of the community, and by doing so, continue to build, empower and develop the arts and audiences in the community.

The SPO works to create high quality performances of symphonic and chamber music. Supporting and promoting Canadian composers and their music is a priority, as well as fostering and mentoring new generation and young musicians. The SPO reaches out to connect with under-served members of the community through discounted and free tickets as well as targeted community concerts.

Our vision is to create an environment of Inclusiveness, Equality, and Diversity through the arts. We believe music and the arts have the ability to unite people.
