Concerts

We will provide more information about concerts as the year progresses. What I hope is that we can rent a church or two and play in the space just to let the

sound wash over us. Perhaps we can record or live stream some performances next spring. Brantford has some beautiful old churches. I think we could stand in

the pews to play while easily practicing physical distancing.

Instrument Rentals

The orchestra has an inventory of student violins, cellos, and violas for rent. The violins and cellos we have in all sizes. There are 2 violas and a half size bass.

Contact Tina Labanowicz if you’re interested in a rental. The instruments are good quality, sound great and have been set up to facilitate a positive learning

experience. The sound and set up are very important to a child’s developing ear and their musical development.
