The Orchestre Symphonique de Québec (OSQ), established in 1902, is among the oldest and most prestigious orchestras in Canada, deeply rooted in the cultural landscape of Quebec City, the province's capital. Over more than a century of its existence, the OSQ has evolved into a key player in the Canadian classical music scene, under the baton of distinguished conductors and featuring performances by world-renowned soloists. Its repertoire spans a broad spectrum of music, from the classical masterpieces of Beethoven and Mozart to the rich, emotive scores of contemporary cinema, showcased in the variety of their most recent releases such as "Gaîté parisienne" and "Saint-Saëns & Tchaikovsky".

Their discography reflects a particular affinity for French composers and thematic compilations, evident in albums like "French Showpieces (Concert Francais)" and "Great Romantic Duets of French Opera." Additionally, the OSQ honors its mission to promote Canadian music and talents, as seen in their recording of "L'enfant prodige: L'incroyable destinée d'André Mathieu (musique du film)", celebrating the life of the Canadian child prodigy, André Mathieu. Through its celebrated concert seasons, educational outreach, and innovative recordings, the Orchestre Symphonique de Québec continues to enrich the cultural life of its community and uphold its legacy as a beacon of musical excellence in Canada.
