Read Profile
The Shevchenko Choir is an integral part of the Shevchenko Musical Ensemble with the Toronto Mandolin Orchestra. Although its roots lie in the Ukrainian community, through more than our 65-year history, we have evolved into a multicultural choir whose repertoire reflects the diversity of our society, including folk songs, classical and original works. Currently, the choir presents its own choral concert each year; performs 2-3 times at Seniors Residences; and appears with the Toronto Mandolin Orchestra, including instrumental and vocal soloists, as part of the full Ensemble.
A non-audition choir, its rehearsals are held Sunday mornings (10:00-12:30am) at Borochov Cultural Centre, 272 Codsell Ave.
Our highly talented conductor, Alexander Veprinskiy, blends the choir and orchestra into a unique musical ensemble.

Welcome to The WholeNote’s 15th annual Canary Pages, a directory of a wide range of Ontario choirs. The Canary Pages directory provides an opportunity for choirs to introduce themselves, in their own words, to individuals of all ages seeking choirs to sing in or to listen to, in every genre and at every level of skill and commitment.

The 123 choirs here include some that have been around for many decades, new groups on the scene, choruses of hundreds of voices, small and intimate chamber ensembles, children’s and youth choirs, groups of singers with workplace, worship or identity as their focus, choirs with socializing, community or high-level performance as their driving force – every colour of the choral rainbow is represented for you to browse.
