Lydia Adams and the Amadeus Choir celebrate the lives of so many who were lost in war conditions, past and present. Maurice Duruflé's exquisitely gentle and serene Requiem sets the tone for a program which also features music by Bainton, Howells, Ireland, Parry, Sumsion and Canadian Healey Willan. Let this beautiful, peaceful music take you away from the turbulence of life.

The festive season is the inspiration for this concert which highlights all things seasonal, old and new. The winners of our annual Christmas Carol and Chanukah Song Writing Competition will be there to hear their fresh new carols and songs sung by the Amadeus Choir, and we promise to sing lots of your familiar favourites too! There will be a distinctly Canadian flavour, with joyful music by Howard Cable and Jason Jestadt.

Guest Artists:
The Bach Children’s Chorus
True North Brass
Shawn Grenke and Eleanor Daley, organ and piano

Help us celebrate this significant birthday, and join us for a program of some of our namesake's finest choral music. Mozart’s beloved Requiem, and the less well known but equally gorgeous Vespers are presented to you, with our love! "Wolfie" would be so glad to know you had joined us for this very special evening, and he's actually thinking of joining us - keep an eye out for him, as you enjoy the superb acoustics and beautiful surroundings of Yorkminster Park Baptist Church.

Guest Artists:
Rebecca Whelan, soprano

This last concert of the season sees the Amadeus Choir in a lighter mood, with rhythmic, beguiling music from south of the border. The fascinating Canciones por las Americas by Canadian Sid Robinovitch joins Ramirez's immensely popular Misa Criolla, and Piazzola's Tango Arrangements will have you tapping your feet! Music by Villa-Lobos and Tedesco complete an evening full of sound and colour.
