The Resilient Symphony: A VSO Virtual Concert Gala Vancouver Symphony Orchestra
The Show Must Go On
With proceeds supporting exceptional performances, inspiring music education programs and community engagement initiatives, the VSO’s annual Concert Gala faced an entirely new challenge thanks to Covid restrictions put in place over their 2020-21 Season.
Celebrating a theme of Music and Resilience, the entire event was presented virtually. From the stage of the stunning Orpheum Theatre, the 2021 VSO Virtual Concert Gala was a combination of pre-recorded elements and live onstage performances; PRP oversaw digital content production and virtual fundraising integration as well as provided scripting, technical direction and production management. The end result? Though not a single guest entered the venue, they were treated to a broadcast-level virtual event from the comforts of their own home.
Over $500,000 was raised in support of the VSO and VSO School of Music and PRP was thrilled to help make it possible for the VSO to create, curate and connect irresistible musical experiences during these challenging times and beyond.
