Biography
The Toronto Symphony Orchestra is a Canadian ensemble from Toronto, Ontario, founded in 1922 as the New Symphony Orchestra. They achieved professional recognition for their first performance at Massey Hall in 1923 under the direction of Luigi von Kunits. The ensemble adopted the name Toronto Symphony Orchestra in 1927 and has performed at Roy Thomson Hall since 1982. Music directors have included Sir Ernest MacMillan (1931â1956), Walter Susskind (1956â1965), Seiji Ozawa (1965â1969), Karel AnÄerl (1969â1973), and Sir Andrew Davis (1975â1988).

Their recording career includes commercial releases for labels including Chandos Records and the TSO Live label. Gustavo Gimeno has served as the music director since the 2020â2021 season.
