Orchestra London Canada

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Orchestra London (Canada) was a Canadian professional symphony orchestra based in London, Ontario. The orchestra was founded by conductor and violinist Bruce Sharpe in 1937 with the name the London Civic Symphony Orchestra. In 1957 the orchestra changed its name to the London Symphony Orchestra, but as the orchestra achieved full professional status it adopted the name Orchestra London in 1981 to avoid confusion with the famous London Symphony Orchestra in London, England.[1]

After weeks of speculation, the orchestra ceased operations on December 11, 2014 due to massive budget shortfalls.[2] The musicians of the now bankrupt organization formally filed for bankruptcy on behalf of the orchestra on May 22, 2015.[3] Despite this, the contracted musicians of the ensemble have continued to put on self-produced concerts within the London community.[4]

Initially, former musicians of the ensemble played under the identity, "#WePlayOn". On January 20, 2017, however, the musicians launched their new identity, London Symphonia at a concert at Metropolitan United Church in London, Ontario. The new identity includes a logo change and the launch of a new website, LondonSymphonia.ca.[5] The group has 28 musicians and a concertmaster.[6] The London Symphonia performs with renowned soloists such as violinist James Ehnes and pianist Janina Fialkowska.[7]
