Performance Packages
Performance packages consist of a variety of music including swing tunes from the 40's and 50's, tender ballads or hymns, doo-wop, energetic and fun up-tunes, and standards from across the musical spectrum. Most of our performance repertoire consists of songs that will be familiar to most audiences. Performance times can be adjusted to fit your specific program needs. Quartets from within the chorus may also perform as part of the "show package."
Fees
The fees for our performances vary and should be discussed with the chorus business manager. The chorus business manager may be reached by e-mailing Doug Iles at ilese@shaw.ca
What We Do
ANNUAL SPRING SHOW
The annual show is our main public performance of the season. It is held at the Kiwanis Community Theatre Centre on the first Saturday of April, unless that is the Easter weekend.
Our annual shows are not generally a concert-style performance but more typically involve a storyline and characters woven among the songs creating a musical-comedy theatre experience staged with the help of accomplished actors, stage managers
and stage directors from the thriving local theatre community.
A top-notch quartet, often of International Quartet Champion credentials, performs after intermission, rounding out the evening's a cappella experience.
Curtain is 7:30 pm and shows typically run just under 2.5 hours
What We Also Do
Smaller performances throughout the community that run 30-45 minutes and which may include such events as:
Holiday parties
Festive a cappella renditions of your holiday favorites add to the merriment of your seasonal get-togethers.
Civic Events, Arts Festivals, Corporate Events, Fundraisers and more...
Planning some entertainment for your convention? Planning a major Civic Festival event like the opening ceremonies of the Bon Soo Winter Carnival? Schedule our chorus to illustrate the power of harmony!
Retirement Homes
We are welcomed each year by several homes for seniors and are always greeted with great enthusiasm by the residents who often can't help but sing along with us on some of those great old songs that were popular in their heyday. But since our music spans the 20th century, we're sure to have songs in our repertoire that will be familiar to any age group.
Weddings
Wedding receptions are particularly suited to the intimacy of four voices singing in perfect harmony directly to the bride and groom at close range. One of our chapter quartets may be an appropriate choice here. See our quartet contact page here.
