HWS was originally formed as a youth choir to celebrate Dr. Willan’s 125th anniversary in 2005. Since 2007, the choir has reinvented itself into one of the finest women’s ensembles in the city. Rehearsals are Saturdays from 10:15am to 12:30pm, from September to April. This coming season, the choir will perform a late November program titled “Carols and Lullabies” and at the end of April a concert of music transformed from other repertoire into music for women’s choir, featuring Mozart’s Missa in C “Spatzenmesse” with orchestra. The choir performs repertoire from Gregorian chants to contemporary new works, especially by women and Canadian composers. Auditions are held year-round. Rehearsals and concerts are held at the Church of St. Martin in-the-Fields, 151 Glenlake Ave. in the Keele and Bloor St. W. area.
