In 1969, Solomon co-founded the Canadian folk-pop music group Myles and Lenny together with Myles Cohen. Myles & Lenny performed and recorded during most of the 1970s, won the 1976 Juno Award for Breakthrough Group of the Year and then parted ways. In 1982, Solomon formed the pop string quintet Quintessence with guitarist Bill Bridges. They made a few recordings for Duke Street Records and toured throughout Canada during the 1980s.
During the 1990s, Solomon toured with the Lenny Solomon Trio, which was dedicated to jazz violin. In 1997, with violinist Moshe Hammer and pianist Bernie Senensky, he founded The Galaxy Trio, which blended classical and jazz styles and recorded one CD.
In 2000 Solomon established the chamber group Trio Norté, which released one album in 2002, and the violin ensemble Bowfire which made its debut performance at Expo 2000 in Hanover Germany. Bowfire was internationally successful and toured the world until 2015.
