Simon Capet

In 2005 Capet founded the Victoria Philharmonic Choir (VPC), serving as its principal conductor until 2008 when Peter Butterfield succeeded him.

[1] Capet has worked as a freelance conductor for over 20 years, guest conducting orchestras in North America and Europe.

Capet is a cofounder of the orchestral ensemble euphonia, a group of dynamic musicians who share the objective of creating new audiences for live performances of classical music.

In April 2013 euphonia became the new house band at Lula Lounge, a famous nightclub in Toronto and performs there on the second Monday of every month.

Under Capet's direction euphonia is changing perceptions of classical music and growing a new extremely enthusiastic audience.
