Galileo

Dirigé par Daniel Constantineau, Galileo (anciennement Orchestre symphonique de la Vallée-du-Haut-Saint-Laurent) est la seule compagnie de musique classique professionnelle de la Montérégie-Ouest, en périphérie sud-ouest du Grand Montréal. Formation de chambre composée de 15 à 35 instrumentistes selon le répertoire qu’il aborde, son principal objectif consiste à produire de la musique symphonique vivante sur un territoire qui en est généralement privé. Il le fait sur instruments d’époque, ce qui s’harmonise à merveille avec le caractère historique de la région. Par ailleurs, Galileo est un OBNL inscrit en tant qu’organisme de bienfaisance et promeut à ce titre la formation et le développement musical de son public en général et des jeunes en particulier. Depuis le début de ses activités, en octobre 2010, l’Orchestre s’est exécuté à 20 reprises dans diverses agglomérations de la Montérégie-Ouest. Ses productions témoignent de la qualité de son travail artistique et de son enracinement régional en cela qu’elles l’ont respectivement mené à l’enregistrement des œuvres baroques d’André Gagnon par le prestigieux label ATMA, en juillet 2015, à sa participation aux Seigneuriales de Vaudreuil-Dorion depuis juin 2016, à sa nomination aux Gala de l’ADISQ 2016 et Prix Opus 2017, à l’obtention de ses premières subventions de la part du Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec, du Conseil des arts et de la culture de Vaudreuil-Soulanges et de la Ville de Vaudreuil-Dorion, en 2017, et à la totalité de ses concerts par le Conseil des arts du Canada depuis avril 2018. De cette façon, Galileo se positionne à titre de phalange symphonique à la fine pointe des tendances mondiales en termes d’interprétation de musique classique et se révèle la seule formation canadienne à aborder tous les répertoires qui peuvent s’y prêter, c'est à dire du Baroque tardif (1730-1750) aux Années folles (1930) environ, selon des paramètres et approches qualifiés d’historiquement informés.
