Event Information
About this Event
We are thrilled to share our first digital concert with our friends, family and fans around the world. During these challenging times, safely coming together as a choir family has meant so much to us, and we want to share that joy with all of you. Edette Gagne, our Artistic Director, curated a delightful musical journey that captures that joy.
WORLD PREMIERE - featured in this program is the world premiere performance of the opening movement of David Millard’s “Requiem”, composed in memory of Alan Ryder - a beloved member of our choir we lost this past spring. Hauntingly beautiful, the “Introit” is lovingly brought to life with the composer at the organ, making for a very special tribute.
The program includes many familiar favourites, a few surprises and a chance to sing-along with some carols - because our traditional concert wouldn’t be complete without a little carolling!
Available for viewing from December 18 to January 6 , you can dress up - or snuggle up - and watch at your leisure.
