Every instrument has its quirks 📯 sometimes it’s just a matter of asking nicely!

Do you remember the first time you heard an orchestra perform live?
For Leonie, it all started in Ottawa—from the buzz backstage at her father’s operetta performances to evenings spent watching the @nac.cna Orchestra. That’s where she first heard the flute and felt something click. She started playing at eight years old and never stopped.
Now a flutist with the TSO, she helps create those same first moments for young listeners across the city. And she’s seen it again and again: kids’ eyes lighting up, questions spilling out, that spark when something new begins to take hold.
➡️ Swipe to see young Leonie and where it all began.
What you don’t see 👀
It’s not just the performance. For Associate Principal Flute @kayla.burggraf , it’s often about balancing multiple programs a week, all while maintaining the daily fundamentals that make it possible.
