Ten Thousand Thank yous from the MennoSingers choir to our audience, our sponsors, our musicians and our mass choir singers. It was a risk to perform a lesser known piece as our mass choir finale at Centre in the Square as part of our 70th anniversary season - and we believe that risk paid off. Audience members affirmed it as an unforgettably moving experience - powerful with the force of 5 percussionists and a full assembly of brass, a sensitive cello solo, a piercing piccolo, one can go on. The final message of the piece “Better is Peace than Always War” landed strongly with this audience, who sang with the mass choir - Dona Nobis Pacem - Give Us Peace. We look forward to sharing next season’s music with you next fall!

The MennoSingers season may be finished, but musical opportunities continue!

Derica Scott and Elaine Glinos are both recent Wilfrid Laurier University Faculty of Music graduates. The concert is called “Travel Back In Time.” We created this concert series, featuring a wide variety of music genres, to make connections between classical music and modern life and open up the world of opera to people who might not be familiar with it. We will be featuring local guest artists too! We want to share our music with the community.

Saturday May 30th 5:30 pm at All Saints Anglican Church. Pay what you Can

In his Mass for Peace, Karl Jenkins forces an encounter with the senseless violence of war, and the raw grief that accompanies it. As the dust settles, we all receive this gentle benediction. Benedictus is perhaps the most beloved movement of the work. Last night MennoSingers posted a clip from the dress rehearsal unaware that this was not permitted. Enjoy this authorized Youtube version directed by Sir Karl Jenkins himself instead- and come if you at all can to hear it in person tonight! Bring tissues, it is a meaningful performance. Tickets available at the door and at the Centre in the Square box office.

MennoSingers family of choirs is proud to support musical opportunities for all ages, starting from Grade 1.
