The Guelph Chamber Choir’s mission is “To foster community enjoyment and appreciation of choral music by a highly skilled choir, through performances, outreach, artistic collaboration, and community partnerships”.
SingOUT is a donor-supported, multi-faceted community outreach program aimed to help us share the joy of music with those who may not otherwise hear live choral singing.
SingOUT
The Guelph Chamber Choir supports a number of initiatives intended to make choral music accessible and relevant to the community. In particular, our youth intiatives include the Patricia and Gerald Neufeld Emerging Artist program and special pricing for performances.
GCC visits retirement communities, hospitals, schools and other venues where access to live music performances is limited by economic, or other accessibility challenges.
GCC in the Community – May 4, 2024
On May 4, 2024 we brought music to communities who needed it most.
We performed for the residents of Chartwell Wellington Park, Guelph Lake Commons, Stone Lodge, and The Village of Arbour Trails.
Not only is it a fulfilling experience for members of our community, but also for our choir members who are able to share their appreciation of choral music.
GCC in the Community – April 29, 2023
One of the most rewarding SingOUTs that we do, is to perform for residents of Long Term Care facilities and retirement residences.
Last year we were able to perform small outside concerts, but we’re thrilled to be able to perform indoors again this year.
“My mom lives at Guelph Commons. She just told me she saw this most amazing choir.. She absolutely raved about it! Thanks so much!!”
The concert was very well received, and those who were there told other residents that they’d missed an excellent performance. The repertoire was well chosen for this audience, … On behalf of myself personally, and the residents of Guelph Lake in general, please, please come back!
