What is the Paukenmesse? 🎶 Powerful. Peaceful. Thunderous.

At the heart of our 50th Anniversary concert is Joseph Haydn’s powerful Missa in tempore belli - the Paukenmesse. Written during a time of war, this remarkable work blends moments of grandeur with passages of striking intensity, offering both beauty and reflection.

We’re so excited to perform this monumental piece alongside the Fredericton Choral Society, and with an outstanding lineup of guest soloists:
✨ Olivia LaPointe, soprano
✨ Jillian Bonner, contralto
✨ Shane Scott, tenor
✨ Paul Bustin, baritone

Catch it live with full orchestra and choir on April 14!

As we celebrate this milestone, we’re taking a moment to look back - on the music, the memories, and most importantly, the people who made it all possible.

Musicians. Volunteers. Conductors. Donors. You. 💛

For five decades, this orchestra has been built by a community that believes in the power of music to bring people together. From our earliest days as the Fredericton Chamber Orchestra to the vibrant ensemble we are today, every rehearsal, every performance, and every shared moment has shaped our story.
