Etobicoke Centennial Choir

Read Profile

Etobicoke Centennial Choir (ECC) is a SATB auditioned community choir dedicated to celebrating the art and joy of choral singing. We offer performances of diverse repertoire ranging from classical masterpieces to contemporary compositions and music from around the world.

ECC offers a challenging and supportive choral experience guided by professional artists. Rehearsals are held every Tuesday, September to June, from 7:30pm to 9:45pm at Humber Valley United Church in Etobicoke.

The ability to read music is required and some choral experience is recommended but not necessary.

Our 2025/26 season will feature Benjamin Britten’s glorious A Ceremony of Carols with harp accompaniment and Poulenc’s Quatre motets pour le temps de Noël.

The choir will pay tribute to the Big Band era with the music of Jerome Kern, Irving Berlin, Duke Ellington, the Gershwins and more, accompanied by a combo of saxes, trumpets, trombones, bass and piano led by Juno award-winning drummer Ernesto Cervini.

Women composers will be showcased in a program that includes A World Beloved: A Bluegrass Mass by Carol Barnett with instrumental accompaniment, music by Canadian composers Eleanor Daly, Ruth Watson Henderson and ECC’s own Lauren Halász.
