About Us
We are dedicated to bringing the joy of classical and contemporary music to our local community. Unlike professional paid orchestras, we are entirely made up of volunteer musicians that share a passion for music.
Adult musicians from diverse backgrounds, ages, and professions are in our ranks. We come together because we share a deep love for playing music and take great pleasure in presenting concerts in the Royal Oak area. This collective enthusiasm fuels our performances and connects us with our community.

Our Story
Our journey began in 1995 when Peter Tolias founded our orchestra. Since then, we have been led by many talented conductors, including John Robertson, John Dovaras, John McLaughlin Williams and various guest conductors. These individuals have played a vital role in shaping our orchestra’s growth and artistic direction.
