orchestral music and music education to enrich life in southern Saskatchewan. Over the course of a 39 week season, the RSO

de la Symphonie to Back to Back – the Music of Elton John and Billy Joel. We will launch the RSO Kids series with the famous
orchestral music based on Roch Carrier’s iconic book, The Hockey Sweater. The RSO will present an hour of pre-concert activities
before each RSO Kids concert that is sure to inspire creativity and fun! This year the RSO Special concert series will present a
city-wide favourite and holiday tradition, Handel’s Messiah, and a sing-a-long Messiah the following day. Without a doubt, this
season is sure to appeal to all musical tastes!
