Directed by Alex Pauk since its founding in 1983, the Esprit Orchestra is the only Canadian full orchestra entirely dedicated to new music.
The SMCQ has been moving in step with the lively rhythms of new music for over forty-five years. With its regular concert season, its Série hommage (Homage Series), an international festival, and a young listener’s programme, the society has served both as a platform for today’s composers and as a window on creative works for everyone.
