ESO Summer 2023
ESO Summer 2023
Your Edmonton Symphony Orchestra will perform a wide variety of concerts this summer.
ESO Outdoors
The Edmonton Symphony Orchestra musicians are on the move! This summer, join members of your ESO in your neighbourhood through ESO Outdoors. Curated groups of ESO members will perform delightful renditions of memorable songs spanning multiple genres, including classical, pops, and Hollywood film scores.
These Pay-What-You-Can concerts will take place in outdoor spaces in Edmonton and surrounding communities as the ESO musicians connect with you through the power of live music.
Symphony at Snow Valley
Symphony Under the Sky at Hawrelak Park will not take place this year due to the three-year closure of Hawrelak Park for renovations. Instead, we are pleased to announce that we will hold four outdoor concerts at Snow Valley on August 23 - 26.
Your Edmonton Symphony Orchestra will perform two excellent programs of classical music over four days, with music by composers including Beethoven, Mozart, Mendelssohn, plus hits from your favourite films. This casual setting (grass seating only – bring your own blanket or festival-height chair!) is ideal for families (kids under 18 get in for free!), as well as music and movie lovers, or anyone who enjoys a great outdoor concert. Your favourite guest conductor, Bob Bernhardt, will be there too. Enjoy a picture-perfect evening of delightful music outdoors at Symphony at Snow Valley!
