Competition registrationIn July 2026 the SSYO travelled to Paris where they rehearsed at Le Pavillon de la Sirène. The orchestra then travelled to Vienna where they performed at the World Orchestra Festival.
Every season, we host three in-house concerts, participate in the Winterfest or the Cathedral Village Arts Festival, and perform in an RSO concert. We also host SSYO Spend-a-Day, where young musicians are invited to spend an afternoon in rehearsal with the current SSYO members. To enter this year, please see link below the calendar. When we travel overseas, we collaborate with destination youth orchestras for joint performances.
The SSYO travels as part of its orchestral experience. Our travel opportunities offer young musicians the chance to perform nationally and internationally, providing exposure to diverse cultural contexts and the experience of performing alongside fellow young musicians on global stages.
National
The SSYO has participated in numerous music festivals and events across Canada. Our travels have taken us to Vancouver, Toronto, and Alberta, where we performed and collaborated with young musicians from across the country.
International
The SSYO has also ventured internationally, visiting destinations like Europe, China, Japan, and South America. During these trips, our musicians collaborate with local orchestras, hold workshops, and perform. Traveling with chaperones not only fosters cultural appreciation but also strengthens friendships, boosts team spirit, and enhances musical growth on a global scale.
