Dear friends and supporters
Pro Coro Canada is going on tour, bringing our Alberta Choral Treasure across the country to Ontario.
We are presenting a fantastical program entitled Once Upon a Time, taking our audiences on a journey in song through myths, folk and fairy tales from Hans Christian Andersen to contemporary adaptations, with Yeats and Albanian folk tales, and other enchanting poems and stories.
In concert, we will also showcase the works of several prominent Edmonton composers including John Estacio, Laura Hawley, and Allan Gilliand, as well as the premiere of a new choral work by composer Stuart Beatch.
This tour is an exciting opportunity for us to connect with fellow artists from across Canada and share our artistry on a national stage, and at renowned festivals.
The choir is leaving Edmonton on July 15, and retuning on July 26! 11 days of choral music, including:
July 16 – Music & Beyond Festival, Ottawa
July 19 – Concert with Modern Sound Collective, Toronto
July 22 – Choir Camp Concert, Owen Sound
July 23 – Elora Festival Feature Concert, Fergus
July 25 – Elora Festival Closing Night with the Elora Singers, Elora
Leading up to the tour, and during our time in Ontario, we will be sharing stories from the road through our blog, with regular updates in newsletters. It’ll be an exciting time as we sing our way across the province, sign-up for news to be a part of it.
Thank you to everyone who continues to support and contribute to this work! We’re proud to bring Pro Coro Canada to audiences across Ontario this summer and look forward to seeing faces both familiar and new in the crowd!.
