THE SCOOP | Toronto Symphony Axes Remaining 2019-20 Season

By Michael Vincent on April 14, 2020

Toronto Symphony Orchestra

Despite hopes that the Toronto Symphony Orchestra might be able to resume their season beyond June, the orchestra has officially cancelled all remaining events through June 27.

The cancellation spans 16 events and a total of 36 scheduled concerts, including the Toronto Symphony Youth Orchestra.

The TSO will postpone two events, Joe Hisaishi in Concert (June 26, 2021) and Star Wars: The Force Awakens — In Concert (May 13–15, 2021).

“The cancellation of a third of our season is devastating in so many ways, said CEO Matthew Loden in a press release statement. “The very thing that drives us — making exquisite music that connects us with our audience in a common journey — has been taken away by this heartbreaking health crisis.”

The TSO is offering ticket holders the option of donating the value of their tickets, a refund or credit or gift certificate for a future concert.

Subscribers and patrons can contact TSO Patron Services Representatives at 416.598.3375 or contactus@TSO.CA.

The TSO’s 2020-21 season will return September 23, with a conductor Gustavo Gimeno, and mezzo-soprano Emily D’Angelo.
