National Arts Centre Orchestra

The National Arts Centre Orchestra is considered one of Canada's top orchestras. The orchestra is a classically sized ensemble that is currently under the direction of Pinchas Zukerman. It is based in Ottawa and has often travelled abroad. The orchestra was founded in 1969 to take adavantage of the new National Arts Centre that was opened in that year. The building, in the heart of the nation's capital has four large halls, the largest of which is home to the orchestra. In recent years there have been discussions about renaming the orchestra to the Canadian National Orchestra, as many feel that the group does not earn enough respect abroad with its current title.
