A city singing together.The Toronto Symphony Orchestra will perform Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9 at Roy Thomson Hall alongside the Toronto Mendelssohn Choir—while thousands gather in Sankofa Square to experience it together.
This performance will be live-streamed onto the square’s towering screens, transforming the heart of downtown into an open-air concert hall.
By the final movement, choristers from across the city will gather at Sankofa Square to sing the finale of Ode to Joy in German, conducted by Jean-Sébastien Vallée.
Part of Luminato @ Sankofa Square, this will be a rare chance to witness—and be part of—a city-wide celebration of music and togetherness.
To join Ode To Joy on June 12 at Sankofa Square, please register. We encourage all participants to review the learning materials in advance.
Ode to Joy!: Sing with the Symphony is co-presented with Toronto Symphony Orchestra, in association with Toronto Mendelssohn Choir, supported by BMO, the City of Toronto’s Community Celebration Support Fund, The William and Nona Heaslip Foundation, and Downtown Yonge BIA
