2011-2012 Season: Music for your Heart & Soul

Welcome to our season! We have become more passionate than ever in presenting great orchestral music to Vancouver Island audiences, with thrilling, fascinating, awe-inspiring concerts.

Follow our invitation on a diverse and exciting musical road; we explore great symphonies, such as Beethoven’s Fifth and Schumann’s Rhenish, collaborate with world-renowned soloists, such as Ian Parker, Martin Chalifour, and the Bergmann duo, and feature innovative themed events such as a Carnival-Concert, the return of our symphonic tribute to local Heroes, and a complete performance of Handel’s Water Music.

We promise to give ourselves, Heart and Soul, to our music-making, in our beautiful home at the Port Theatre. Come experience YOUR Vancouver Island Symphony, and FEEL THE LOVE!
