Vancouver Symphony Orchestra Concert Tickets
Revel in the glow of some of the world’s most iconic music brilliantly performed by a world-renowned group when you order Vancouver Symphony Orchestra tickets. The Orchestra was founded in 1919 by the Vancouver Symphony Society, though it disbanded two years later and was revived in 1930. Since 2018, the Orchestra has been led by Dutch Music Director Otto Tausk, just the ninth director in the Orchestra’s history. The Orchestra specializes in powerful and passionate performances of classical, popular and culturally diverse music. Their concerts are attended by over 250,000 people annually.
The Orchestra also has an illustrious recording history, releasing their first album, Violin Concerto No. 1 / Romeo And Juliet Excerpts, in 1973. They’ve since released or been featured on 29 subsequent albums, including their most recent album, Holiday Pops with the Vancouver Symphony (2012). In 2008, the Orchestra won their first Grammy Award for their recording, Barber/Korngold/Walton: Violin Concertos. They also have a rich touring background, with past concert engagements in China, the U.S. and Korea. Treat yourself to a night out and hear music anew with Vancouver Symphony Orchestra tickets.
