The McGill Symphony Orchestra brings their trademark energy and artistry to the Maison symphonique! Maestro Alexis Hauser closes his 20th season leading the outstanding student orchestra in an exciting program of Beethoven and Mahler.

Professor Axel Strauss joins the ensemble as soloist in Beethoven’s one-and-only Violin Concerto, a lyrical and transcendent masterpiece. The beloved 4th Symphony by Mahler explores themes of childhood and innocence with soprano Christina Thanisch-Smith singing the stunning final movement.
