• Nous produisons des concerts symphoniques principalement sur instruments d’époque contribuant ainsi au raffinement et à l'amélioration des perspectives connaissances et goûts à la fois artistiques et historiques de ses auditeurs. • Nous organisons des prestations musicales dans le cadre d’activités culturelles et formatives croisées par le biais des programmes « Dans la cour des grands » qui intègre des élèves des écoles secondaires jeunes instrumentistes ou musiciens amateurs de la région lors de répétitions qui leur sont expressément consacrées et «Cause toujours...» ou «Entrevues-entractes» qui favorisent l’accès au langage de la musique classique par l’entremise de conférences en présentiel ou en virtuel gravitant autour des premières. Celles-ci contribuent au développement socio-économique de la région de même qu'à la réappropriation de ses territoire histoire et patrimoine religieux (concerts donnés dans les églises historiques du territoire) par ses habitants. • Nous promouvons le programme d'accès à nos spectacles «Biglietto sospeso» qui s’inscrit dans la lignée du Caffè sospeso napolitain où un client fortuné offre un expresso à un client inconnu qui l’est moins — le café étant ici remplacé par un billet. • Nous diversifions nos points de diffusion et multiplions nos démarchages auprès d’un maximum de municipalités de la Montérégie-Ouest afin d’offrir pour un coût qui se veut le plus modique possible nos spectacles de musique classique sur scène à un bassin de spectateurs qui en est généralement privé.
