AWARD-WINNING. INSPIRING. ECLECTIC. STUNNING. EXPRESSIVE.
FOUNDED BY CHAMBER CHOIR SINGERS, 1983
The award-winning Phoenix Chamber Choir, and our Artistic Director Graeme Langager, are proud to present Listen, our 33rd concert season. Be delighted and moved by songs that are anything but typical: we will share exquisite human expressions of life, love, joy, and longing through music.
Phoenix’s annual Christmas concert is a must-see event, warming hearts and ringing in the season. This year, The Singing Heart includes new Christmas music and many old favourites. We also welcome a youth choir for the final inspirational piece that features a mass choir and hand bells.
In March, join us for To See A World. Step outside of our normal concert setting and journey with us to the four corners of the earth. More than a collection of songs from different countries, we will take you on a voyage of quest, discovery, and longing.
The final concert of our season is Tell Me You Love Me. We will share with you the devotion, loss, playfulness, trust, and comfort that accompany the many different expressions of love, from the exuberant Voice Dance—originally written and premiered as a light and playful wedding processional—to the grief-stricken And So I Go On. This incredible concert will leave you in tears while filling you with hope.
Our season will also include two collaborations with our great friends, Bramwell Tovey and the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra. We will join them for performances of the Fauré Requiem, Stravinsky’s Symphony of Psalms and Brahms’ Ein Deutsches Requiem.
Join us and experience for yourself why Phoenix Chamber Choir is one of the most celebrated amateur choirs in Canada. Listen and be inspired.
