The choir of Grace Church on-the-Hill proudly embraces our excellent Anglican choral tradition while looking towards the future for new inspiration. Our choirs for both adults and children sing weekly from September to June. Our children’s choirs provide the ideal learning environment for young musicians, and we have funding available to subsidize the cost of music lessons for our children! Choristers of all ages develop lifelong friendships, self-esteem, and the joy of coming together to sing. We take a choir tour every year. Some tours are small, like a day trip to Niagara-on-the-Lake, and some tours are larger, such as our two week tour to sing in cathedrals in Dublin and Oxford in 2016. We welcome new members every September.

The Grand Philharmonic Choir, based in Kitchener, includes four choirs in one organization: an adult choir, a chamber adult choir, a youth choir and a children’s choir. We perform in large concert halls, at free public gatherings and in small, intimate settings. Under the direction of Mark Vuorinen, it is our mandate to present choral repertoire of the highest standard, to share our love of music with the public through varied outreach programs and to provide music education to our members and enlightenment to our audiences. We are one of a few large choirs in Canada, outside the major metropolitan areas, with the resources and community support to deliver a full choral season with professional musicians.

The Grand River Chorus is an auditioned 65-voice community choir, serving Brantford and the surrounding area. The choir provides the opportunity, through four major concerts each season, for choristers to participate in the preparation and performance of high quality choral music. The GRC was founded in 1999, and is looking forward to its upcoming 20th anniversary. As well as these four concerts, the choir participates in local celebrations, and collaborates with other organizations. The Cathedral Bluffs, Cambridge, Brantford and the Guelph Symphony Orchestras have all partnered with the GRC in recent memory. To conclude the 2017/18 season, the GRC performs Handel’s Israel and Egypt with the Bach Elgar Choir from Hamilton, at St. Pius Catholic Church, 9 Waverly Street in Brantford on Sunday May 27th at 3pm.
