Harmonium is one of my favourite symphonic bands, so that just beats GY!BE and Saga

Saga, just for those first five studio (plus one live) up through '83.

I will not vote because only know Mistery and Harmonium. James Labrie too but I do not like his voice. I hear about Devin Townsend too. Surprised that the Canadian band Nathan Mahl is not in the list. This band is the one of the long time Camel keyboardist Guy Leblanc. I have the album Odissey The Greatest Tale, in which Nathan Mahl plays the opening epic "Of Longings, Suitors, Deities And Quests..." an excelent track of almost 25 minutes, completely instrumental. I listened some other things of this band and really sounds good.

Thanks, Horizons. I'll check them out. I believe I had heard some Harmonium a few years ago, but I don't recall anything about their music at this juncture. Sloche is another band that has been on my 'bands to check out' list.

Harmonium is my favorite Canadian band, and Maniege is maybe second. Where the f**k is Miriodor though? You could arguably throw Klaatu and Max Webster on there. In fact you definitely could, given the bands you have on here.
A few others: Nathan Mahl / Guy LeBlanc, FM, The Spirit of Christmas, Pangée, L'Orchestre Sympathique / Lasting Weep, Contraction

Lush symph, a bit high-handed but very good

I have albums from approximately 2 bands on this list, Saga and Harmonium, sacrilege I know, but love both equally.
Fave Canadian artist for me is still, and so far, will always be Bruce Cockburn.....
