Our musicians will come to your school and engage your students in an educational/musical performance. Our goal is to educate, inspire, and encourage people of all ages in the enjoyment of music. Students are given the opportunity to experience live classical music in a familiar venue (their school) where they are comfortable. In this year’s concert, the SSO will feature the nine ‘Saskatoon Symphony Chamber Players’ in the 2010 Education and Outreach Concerts. The concert will give students and teachers the chance to experience an inspiring program designed specifically for elementary or secondary school students.
