The orchestra is comprised of professional musicians who perform as a large ensemble (20-25) at Toronto's Glenn Gould Studio (250 Front St. W) and at the Tyndale Chapel (3377 Bayview Ave.). Sinfonietta's mission is to reintroduce live chamber music to the growing population of GTA communities, producing a new generation of concert-goers by presenting concerts that are traditional with a twist. The programs are innovative and often feature guest soloists and interdisciplinary artistic presentations, multi-cultural music, non-western instruments and highlight diverse Canadian artists. In January 2019, Canadian Sinfonietta plays back-to-back Chamber Concerts March 12 and 13 in Toronto and Cobourg at The Concert Hall at Victoria Hall. Both concerts celebrate Cobourg composer Michael Pepa's 80th birthday. Guest soloists Erica Crino (piano), Lynn Kuo (violin) and Rachel Mercer (cello) have long associations with Michael Pepa and have all appeared at Les AMIS chamber concerts in Cobourg.
