Musicians Mark 40 Year Milestone

At the end of each Season, we recognize Calgary Phil musicians who are retiring or have achieved significant milestones. This year, David Sussman, Assistant Principal Oboe, and James Scott, Principal Trombone, are two of the musicians celebrating 40 years of performing with the Orchestra. In this video hosted by Michael Hope, Assistant Principal Bassoon, they chat about some of the highlights from their time with the Orchestra so far and what they're looking forward to next.

The Calgary Philharmonic celebrated 65 years as a pillar of Calgary’s vibrant arts community in 2020 and has grown to be one of Canada’s most celebrated live music ensembles. Led by Music Director Rune Bergmann, the Calgary Phil presents classical masterworks, pop favourites, bold collaborations, and cutting-edge new works, and attracts world-renowned guest artists and dynamic conductors. While the concert hall has been closed throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the Calgary Phil hasn't missed a beat — engaging with the community through free and accessible concert recordings, launching an All Access online hub giving visitors an in-depth musical experience, and continuing to produce high-quality videos — including its popular children’s series An Orchestra Adventure. In a typical Season, the Orchestra welcomes over 100,000 visitors and, in 2017, launched its live-stream initiative — an immersive, digital concert experience for audiences around the world.
