Windsor Classic ChoraleFounded in 1977 by director emeritus Richard Householder, the Windsor Classic Chorale has become a core component of the local arts community, dedicated to achieving artistic excellence by maintaining a high level of musicianship with a rich palette of ambitious choral works. As with many musicians during this time of uncertainty, the WCC has made the necessary transition to a completely virtual format for its 2020/21 season and has presented two virtual concerts during this time.

The WCC considers it a privilege to perform in this community. Their love for choral music is what brings them together. While unable to have audiences hear them in person, this transition to a virtual format is providing the WCC with the opportunity to extend beyond Windsor and Essex County.

Continuing to meet virtually, the choir recorded a few “uplifting” songs and is preparing new “jazzy” arrangements for future concerts.

NST welcomes new members with a commitment to excellence.  We meet on Wednesday evenings at 71 Judson Street, Etobicoke. For further information, please contact Matthew at matthew.jaskiewicz@gmail.com or visit our website.

This dynamic four part community choir has entertained audiences in Halton Region and beyond. The 50-member choir performs two major concerts annually, often including premier guest soloists and musicians. We also perform at numerous local events. Our director, Rachel Cleland, is expanding our already varied repertoire. From classical to contemporary, sacred to secular, we sing it all. Rehearsals are Tuesday night from 7:30pm to 9:30pm. From September to June. A love of singing, some sight reading would be helpful but not necessary, and a sense of humor are all you need to become a Milton Chorister.
