Once again Chorus Niagara's loyal supporters braved another rainstorm to attend a SOLD OUT performance at the Cathedral of St. Catherine on May 14!  The joint choirs ...Orpheus Choir of Toronto and Chorus Niagara were joined by the Side-by-Side High School Chorale,  the fabulous jazz soloist TiannaH and Shaw Festival's Jennifer Phipps who narrated the poetry of Imant Raminsh's Quaternity.

Some memorable comments from audience members:

         Glorious sound... rich and sumptuous

      Quaternity...a splendid piece of work destined to enter the mainstream of great choral music... filled with moving lyricism and a wonderful interplay with a fine accompaniment.

     How did you find TiannaH?...what a performance...

enhanced immeasurably by the choir and fine orchestra.  

    Rutter's Feel The Spirit could have diminished the Quaternity with the "commercial and trivial" but became the achievement of a triumph for all - soloist and chorister and orchestra.

         You gave two choral ensembles an opportunity to sing new Canadian music by a fine composer that was beautifully set and quite challenging.

   Really a damn good show!

We are very excited to invite golfers of all skill levels to our first annual golf tournament
