November marks the kickoff of the Scarborough Philharmonic Orchestra’s 35th season of quality musical entertainment – with two concerts tailored to the season.
Our season premiere features Halloween music, packed with ghoulish and ghastly sounds, like Danse Macabre, The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, Funeral March for a Marionette, Prelude to a Thriller, Harry Potter music and more.
The SPO musicians will be dressed in costume and concert-goers are invited to dress up and join in the fun. There’s even be a costume parade and awards for the best outfits.

Next in line for this month of musical celebrations are the traditional sounds of the holidays.
