Welcome to the Kawartha String Orchestra (KSO)! We are a community orchestra featuring string musicians of all ages and backgrounds from Peterborough, Ontario and the surrounding communities. Website: www.kawarthastring.com
This coming Sunday, February 1, 2026 is the Grammy's Awards. The KSO's very own conductor and music director, Tak Kwan, is a member of their Recording Academy, which means he gets to vote for Grammy winners, among other aspects. Amazing!
