Christmas Market Performance

A few of our amazing chorus members had a great time singing at the German Canadian Club’s Christmas Market! The shoppers and vendors enjoyed our music, and we even got a laugh when, before we began singing, a gentleman asked if our group was the lineup for speed dating!

Our next full chorus performance will be at our Annual Christmas Show, Saturday, November 30, at 2 PM at the Church of the Ascension, 2060 Dundas St, London. Admission is free!

Join us for a delightful afternoon of holiday music and cheer!


Thank you for your recent support!

A Huge Thank You for Supporting Our FUNDrive! 

For several weeks, we collected clothing and household items from our amazing chorus members, their families, and friends, filling our storage unit to the brim! Yesterday, we packed up an incredible 10 trolleys of donations for delivery, and we couldn’t be more excited about the impact this fundraiser will have.

The items we collected will be sold in bulk, and the proceeds will go directly toward reducing our costs as we prepare to represent our region at Internationals in October 2025. 


Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and we are wearing pink to raise awareness and stand in solidarity with all who’ve been affected by breast cancer. We are especially honoured to share the risers with the incredible women in our chorus who are survivors themselves, their strength inspiring us all.

With growing awareness and support, we’re seeing more and more stories of resilience and strength. Together, we stand united, building hope for a brighter future.


Calling all singers!

Are you a woman who loves a cappella and four-part harmony?

We want YOU to come sing with us, the 2024 Regional Champions!

Join us for a rehearsal on October 16, 23, or 30 and potentially claim a spot on our risers. You’ll have the chance to sing with us as we prepare to represent our region in Columbus, Ohio, in 2025 – competing as one of the top midsize choruses in the world! 

Come see what we're all about and be part of something special!

Every Child Matters

On this National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we take a moment to reflect on the importance of this day.

We honour the survivors of residential schools, their families and communities, and we remember the children who never made it home. As we hold hands together in solidarity, we acknowledge that our chorus rehearses on the traditional lands of the Anishinaabeg, Haudenosaunee, Lunaapeewak, and Attawandaron peoples, within the territory of the Three Fires Confederacy.


A Beautiful Day for Music in the Park!

What a perfect afternoon it was at Pinafore Park yesterday!

The sun was shining, the air was filled with joy, and our voices came together to create beautiful harmony. 

A special shout-out to our quartets, Imagine That and Sound Wave, for their fantastic performances—congratulations to Sound Wave on their first performance! 

It takes so many people to pull off great performances, and we truly appreciate everyone’s efforts. Bravo to Holly and Mary for their wonderful work as emcees. A big thank you to Cathy for stepping in at the last moment to blow pitch with MaryLyn. We also want to thank Marg for all her work in setting up the performance. Your contributions truly made the day special!


A Winning Night with the London Majors!

O Canada at Game 1!

On Friday, August 23, a group from the London Chorus had the honour of singing "O Canada" at Game 1 of the London Majors’ 2024 Playoffs, Best-of-Five Quarterfinal – Series C. The energy was electric, and the Majors pulled off a 3-2 win against the Hamilton Cardinals!

Rumor has it that the Majors have never lost a game when we’ve sung the Anthem—so maybe we’re their good luck charm! 

Go Majors! Go London Chorus!


Embracing the Olympic Spirit!

As the world celebrates the Olympics, we’re inspired by the dedication, teamwork, and pursuit of excellence that define these incredible athletes. Just like them, we strive to bring our best to every rehearsal and performance, working together as a team to create beautiful music—while sharing plenty of fun along the way!

Check out our Olympic-themed photos, capturing not just our spirit of unity and determination, but also the joy and playful energy we bring to every note. Let’s keep the Olympic flame burning brightly in our hearts as we continue this journey with smiles, song, and a bit of silliness!


Celebrating International Friendship Day!

International Friendship Day, July 30, 2024

This day, proclaimed by the UN General Assembly in 2011, highlights the importance of friendship between peoples, countries, cultures, and individuals in inspiring peace efforts and building bridges between communities - and we came together for a special group photo to celebrate!

In our chorus, we value the deep connections that our longstanding friendships bring and the excitement of making new friends. Just as our music creates beautiful moments, our friendships create lasting bonds that bring us closer together.

Check out our group photo celebrating the power of friendship and unity!
