Singers of
Toronto 2007-2008 MEMBER PROFILES The Annex Singers, a fifty-voice mixed community choir, has been performing in the Annex neighbourhood for 28 years. The choir has flourished under the able direction and inventive programming of Maria Case, conductor and composer. Two formal concerts are held each year, as well as outreach performances in various downtown Toronto locations and a themed cabaret at the close of the season. The cabaret provides a supportive and light-hearted venue for fledgling performers. The 2007-8 season opens with the December 1 concert featuring Messe de Minuit pour Noël - Charpentier, What Sweeter Music - Rutter, Deo Gratias - Whicher, and a selection of lesser known carols as well as sing-alongs. The Spring Concert is April 12, the cabaret “La Vie Boheme” May 31. New members with vocal experience are welcome in September and January. Rehearsals and performances are held at St. Thomas’s Church, 383 Huron Street. Rehearsals are Mondays, 7:30 to 9:45pm.
