The Orchestre Métropolitain (OM) is one of Quebec's key cultural ambassadors. Since its inception in 1981, the OM has set the bar high, building a unique relationship with the community through highimpact initiatives. Over the past 20 years, the Orchestre has grown alongside its artistic director and principal conductor, Yannick Nézet-Séguin, whose career continues to reach new heights.
