Renaissance Singers
2003-2004 Profile

The Renaissance Singers are a chamber choir dedicated to the performance of great choral works of all periods and styles, from the Renaissance to the 21st century.  The music of England is one of the choir’s specialties, and the choir has completed four concert tours of England, including performances in the prestigious Three Choirs Festival in Gloucester.  True to their Canadian roots, the Singers’ repertoire includes commissioned music of Canadian composers, including the renowned Imant Raminsh.  Conducted by Richard Cunningham, The Renaissance Singers have performed with the Kitchener/Waterloo Symphony Orchestra and have been guest artists with the Guelph Concert Band, the Brantford Symphony Orchestra and the Brantford Music Club.  They have twice performed at the Guelph Spring Festival and twice at the George Weston Recital Hall in the North York Centre for the performing arts. They give annual complimentary Christmas concerts for Cambridge Memorial Hospital and several local retirement homes.  

The Renaissance Singers have four CDs to their credit, the latest an acclaimed recording of carols from fourteen different countries, entitled Christmas Around The World.
