Elora Festival Singers
2003-2004 Profile

Hailed as one of the world’s finest professional chamber choirs, the Elora Festival Singers was founded by Noel Edison in 1980 as the principal vocal ensemble for the Elora Festival. 

Since then, the choir’s activities have expanded to include the popular Winter Series concerts in Elora, touring and recording. EFS also makes up the professional core of the Toronto Mendelssohn Choir. The popularity of EFS in Toronto led to the launch of a series at Trinity College Chapel in 2002-03.
Elora Festival Singers recordings with Naxos include the acclaimed Mystery of Christmas and a Vaughan Williams CD. A recording of Pärt’s choral music is soon to be released, as is Handel’s Messiah.
