Throughout the pandemic, the Kamloops Symphony has worked hard to create new and engaging musical experiences for our patrons, while keeping in mind the safety of our patrons and musicians alike. For our 2020-21 Season we made the rapid transition to digital programming, being one of the first orchestras in the province to launch high-quality digital content, and were one of the few orchestras in Canada to produce a full Season of content with nine full concert experiences. We worked with local and international artists in innovative ways, collaborated with local artistic partners including Western Canada Theatre, the Kamloops Art Gallery, and the Kamloops Film Society, and provided many free digital initiatives through the recently developed KSO Wellness Lab and KSO Front Row initiatives.
For our 2021-21 Season, rather than releasing an entire season of programming at once, we will be announcing our programming on a concert-by-concert basis, so that we may remain as responsive as possible to evolving circumstances.
