Toronto Classical Singers 2026Toronto Classical Singers uphold the highest standards in performing choral works from the past 350 years. Now in our 36th season, we continue to delight Toronto audiences with the best of this wonderful musical heritage.

Our choir is highly regarded for its professionalism and commitment to excellence in performing a repertoire that spans the Baroque, Classical, and Romantic periods. Under the baton of John Holland, our Artistic Director, the choir continues its long-standing partnership with the Toronto Classical Players, an accomplished orchestra that accompanies the choir's performances.

For our 2026-27 season, we are pleased to present two concerts. On December 6, 2026, we will perform Handel's Messiah - everyone's favourite Christmas music! On April 18, 2027, we present Mozart’s Te Deum, Mass in C major "Spatzenmesse", and Regina Coeli, and Zelenka's Miserere, Dixit Dominus, and Beatus Vir.

Our Western choral tradition has brought great beauty into this world for centuries. The need for that beauty has never been greater, and the Toronto Classical Singers are dedicated to ensuring that this vital, inspiring tradition endures and thrives.

We always welcome new members. If this is your kind of music, then come sing with us!

Toronto Childrens Chorus 2026The Toronto Children's Chorus (TCC) is a vibrant musical community that has been nurturing young voices for generations. The Chorus is led by internationally acclaimed Artistic Director Dr. Zimfira Poloz (2022-present), who follows in the esteemed footsteps of Founder and Artistic Director Jean Ashworth Bartle C.M., O.Ont., and Artistic Director Elise Bradley, MNZM. The TCC is proud to have been a cornerstone of choral excellence in Toronto and Canada for 49 years - and looks forward to celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2027/28.

The TCC consists of an early music education program for ages 4-6, and a program of 8 choirs for ages 6-18 that provide exceptional music, vocal, and performance training. TCC presents a concert series each season, including its popular “Songs of the Season” concert at Roy Thomson Hall, and performs with the Toronto Symphony and other Toronto performing arts organisations. The senior choir - TCC Chamber Choir - regularly tours internationally, and in 2026 they represented Toronto and Canada at two prestigious international choral festivals in Hong Kong and Singapore.

Toronto Chamber ChoirThe Toronto Chamber Choir has held a prominent place, enriching Canada’s early music scene since 1968. Since 2014, the TCC’s Artistic Director has been lutenist Lucas Harris. Past directors have included David Fallis and Mark Vuorinen.

The TCC’s 30 to 40 auditioned singers specialize in Renaissance and Baroque repertoire in collaboration with period instrumentalists, though its themed concerts (four per season) often include music from other time periods and diverse cultures. Our performances often explore the cultural context of our repertoire using narration and a multimedia component. Since 2014, we’ve run the Toronto Chamber Consort section lead program for professional singers with a special interest in early music, and since 2003, we’ve run an apprenticeship program with Rosedale Heights School for the Arts.

Rehearsals are Wednesday evenings at St. Clement’s Church (northwest of Yonge/Eglinton). The TCC is committed to inclusion and diversity of perspectives within the choir. We welcome audition requests from singers with excellent choral skills at any time through arrangement with the Artistic Director.

St. James CathedralMusic is central to the life, worship, and ministry of St. James Cathedral in Toronto. Rooted in the rich Anglican choral tradition, the music program continues to evolve in new and exciting ways.

The Cathedral Choir sings for two choral services each Sunday—at the 11am Choral Eucharist and 4:30pm Choral Evensong—and for special liturgical occasions, offering sacred music from the 16th century to today. Directed by Thomas Bell, the choir welcomes both experienced amateur singers and professional voices.

Handel’s Messiah will be presented on December 12, 2026, and the Advent and Christmas candlelight services are beloved seasonal highlights.

Weekly organ recitals take place every Tuesday at 1pm on our 5,100-pipe organ, presenting both talented local and international musicians. Admission is free. St. James also supports an Organ Scholar. Enquiries about the music program are always welcome and may be directed to Thomas Bell, Director of Music, at tbell@stjamescathedral.ca.

 

20th ANNUAL DIRECTORY OF MUSIC MAKERS

We are pleased to present our 20th annual Blue Pages, a directory of music presenters and arts services published every year in our October magazine, and maintained year-round online, under the “Who’s Who” tab at thewholenote.com. This year’s 152-profile portrait of musical life in the Greater Toronto area and Southern Ontario has two segments: section 1 reflects the wealth and diversity of music presenters and performers in our region – orchestras, choirs, opera companies, chamber ensembles, etcetera; section 2 is for individuals and organisations providing services to artists in the communities we cover, predominantly artist managers and publicists.

We’d like to thank all who have chosen to participate in this year’s Blue Pages; individuals and organisations whose support and dedication helps sustain not only The WholeNote but the music community in general. If your organisation missed being part of the October Blue Pages, we’ll be publishing a “latecomers” supplement in the November issue. And the online directory accepts new members year round.

For information on the benefits of a WholeNote membership (of which this Blue Pages profile is a feature), please contact Karen Ages at karen@thewholenote.com or 416-323-2232 x26.
