Join the Chilliwack Symphony Orchestra and choirs for an evening of choral music on Friday April 19, 2024
You’ll hear an eclectic program from sacred to baroque to contemporary and swing! Experience the music of our guests, the Vancouver Orpheus Male Choir and the Company B Jazz Trio, along with Belle Voci, Voces Gioventu and the Chilliwack Symphony Chorus! All under the artistic direction of Maestra Paula DeWit.
Guest Choirs:
Company B Jazz Band delivers a dynamic performance that sends anyone within earshot straight back to the dance halls of the Swing Era and Roaring ’20s speakeasies. Featuring a harmonizing female vocal trio, the band’s creative arrangements, sharp image, and charming wit never fail to get toes tapping and faces smiling.
Vancouver Orpheus Male Choir
Orpheus was formed in 1992 for “Men of all ages who love to sing”. Combining a rich history of male choir standards with new and unexpected arrangements of contemporary works, this choir delivers beyond expectations. Our repertoire covers an eclectic mix of popular ballads, sacred and folk songs, Canadiana, rousing male voice classics and Rock and Roll. The Orpheus men are all amateur yet deliver a professional engaging performance from memory. Each performance guarantees an emotional ride through familiar, new, rousing, humorous and classic repertoire.
Orpheus annually tours BC to enrich smaller communities with choral entertainment. Major tours have included the Maritimes, Ontario, Alberta, Saskatchewan and the US PNW. In September 2015 we toured Wales hosted by many of the Welsh Male Choirs we hosted in Vancouver over the years. The choir made a five-concert tour of the Maritimes in June of 2023 with rave reviews from our host choirs. This is the 31st year as a choir.
