Chorus Niagara
HUNCHBACK CONCERT A TRIUMPH!

Hunchback 1

What the audience DIDN'T see...The Chorus behind the scenes singing the soundtrack to the Hunchback of Notre Dame, directed by Robert Cooper.

What our audience said....


...But what made the evening truly spectacular - and the movie come to life - was the music.  What a score!  Chorus Niagara's performance - and the soloists and organist, too -- were funny, over the top, and heartrending - all at the right moments.  It was always glorious!  My goodness - the evening was a transformational one!

 

Thank you, once again, for providing me - and our community - with an evening that inspired my soul and touched my heart.  What a blessing to experience such a night!

A Big Thank You to our Singathon 2010 Supporters

Thanks to the many hundreds of supporters of our 2010 Singathon at the Pen Centre, Chorus Niagara raised a record $46,000 +!  Not only was it a huge financial success for the Chorus, it was an entertaining day for all with several local celebrities taking turns on the podium.  Without the support of the community and people like YOU, we would not be able to continue to offer the exciting, inspiring and innovative programmes we do.

The 2011 Singathon will take place in February 2011.  Watch for details soon!
