Lights & Shadows
We begin our 38th season with something for everyone! Music by Schumann, Cimarosa, Saint-Saens and Bloomfield with special guest appearances by the Urban Sketchers of Waterloo Region!
The Kitchener-Waterloo Chamber Orchestra is comprised of a core of professional musicians, semi-professionals from our community, and highly-skilled music students. Together, we share a love of music and a commitment to excellence in performance.
All of our concerts take place in the beautiful sanctuary of Knox Presbyterian Church, 50 Erb Street West, Waterloo. The facilities are fully wheelchair accessible with lots of free parking. Click Here for a map.

The Expanding Canon
We offered a taste of this astounding piece in 2019; now we welcome back Guy Few to present the complete work: the world-premiere performance of Boyd McDonald‘s Trumpet & Piano Concerto. Wagner‘s Siegfried Idyll and Symphony #2 by Louise Farrenc complete our program.
The Heart That Dances
After a year of anticipation, we can finally share our stage with the beautiful dancers from Carousel Dance Company. This concert will include lovely works by Fauré and Honegger, a new composition by our very own Matthew Donnelly and Mozart‘s famous Symphony #40.
Winners’ Showcase
We are finally able to celebrate our talented student concerto competition winners! Also on the program is Haydn’s 75th Symphony. Don’t forget your non-perishable donations for the Food Bank of Waterloo Region, and the food banks of Laurier and uWaterloo.
