Carol Sammut

First Violin

As a founding member of the GSO, this orchestra has provided many wonderful memories over the years. These include, special friendships, personal musical growth and a strong sense of community. My musical journey began in Owen Sound, when my grade 6 teacher started a small strings group. I chose the violin, not knowing at the time that my maternal grandfather played. My musical journey continued throughout university and beyond. I performed in many groups and became a school music teacher, having the privilege to teach hundreds of students. The best thing about being a member of the GSO is seeing how far we have come throughout the past 25 years! Our repertoire continues to challenge us, our audiences are inspired and supportive, we collaborate with a variety of groups and above all,

I have the best colleagues!
