The Stratford Symphony Orchestra celebrates its 15th season with a very special concert at the Avon Theatre, featuring renowned Canadian fiddler, Natalie MacMaster and her band, performing with the SSO.

One of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia’s most important exports and a superstar in the Celtic music world (though she’s far too humble to admit it), fiddler and step-dancer Natalie MacMaster has built a sterling, multi-decade career on electrifying playing and must-see live performances. Her extensive discography showcases MacMaster as both soloist and marquee collaborator, notably with husband and fellow fiddler Donnell Leahy. An Order of Canada is among many accolades the Ontario-based mother of six has received in recognition of her peerless artistic status.
