Open Heart Symphony is a 1996 album by Spirit of the West, in collaboration with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra.
The band recorded two shows with the orchestra on May 12 and May 13, 1995, at the Orpheum Theatre.[2] The shows included several renditions of the band's best known songs, and an entire album's worth of songs written specifically for the symphony shows. The new songs were compiled on the album Open Heart Symphony; several of the hits performed at the shows appear on the band's 1999 compilation Hit Parade.
The shows were also taped for broadcast on the Canadian arts channel Bravo!.
