The Bach Elgar Choir is the leading symphonic choir in the Hamilton region and the second-oldest choral organization in Canada. It performed its first concert in 1905 and has several firsts to its credit, including the North American premiere of Verdi’s Requiem. The BEC presents classical works for choir and orchestra, its cherished annual presentation of Handel’s Messiah and programs of varied vocal repertoire from opera to folksong. Featuring the very best Canadian soloists and working together with top orchestras, including the Hamilton Philharmonic Orchestra, the BEC has a reputation for excellence. Now entering its 113th year, the Bach Elgar Choir invites interested singers from all sections to come and join us under the leadership of our artistic director Alexander Cann.
