Founded in 1998, the Canadian Sinfonietta (CS) is a chamber orchestra led by conductor and founder, Tak-Ng Lai in partnership with concertmaster and artistic director Joyce Lai. The organization presents orchestra concerts, comprised of 14-25 professional musicians, and chamber music concerts.
The mission of the Canadian Sinfonietta is to attract a new generation of concert goers by presenting concerts that have a balance of traditional and newly composed or culturally interesting programs. Concerts are both accessible as well as new and fresh. Programs often feature interdisciplinary artistic presentations, multi-cultural music, non-western instruments and highlight diverse Canadian artists.
In addition to a regular series of professional concerts, the CS is proud of their Youth Mentorship Program, including a full senior orchestra and a junior string orchestra. They are a community conscious group and play an active role through partnerships with local groups and organizations.
