The Choir
Vocal Horizons Chamber Choir was founded in November 2005 and is led by Artistic Director, Vincent Cheng.
Our mission:
- To remove barriers of access for those who may have limited opportunities to experience live performance;
- To raise musical awareness and appreciation in the community;
- To present repertoire that consists of a broad range of music, including both familiar vocal works as well as lesser-known and nontraditional pieces;
- To facilitate the creation of unique arrangements for vocal ensemble.
Vocal Horizons members consist of passionate singers who are dedicated to performing at high quality. They have performed concerts at various long-term health care facilities and sung with orchestra in a professional setting. In just over three years, they have achieved much, including: 1st place at the National Kiwanis Festival for chamber choirs, semi-finalist in the CBC amateur choir competition 2008, the Gold Medal in Musicfest Canada, releasing their first CD “Rhapsody in White”, forming the core of the Toronto Philharmonia Chorus and becoming resident choir for the brand new Richmond Hill Centre for the Performing Arts.
Vocal Horizons begins their 2009/2010 season with highly prestigious events, including: “The Power Of One” concert in support of PACT charity, Performing for the Toronto Raptors’ Opening Game and being selected by the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Committee to perform at a Torch Relay Celebration.
They continue to expand their outreach to audiences in the community and beyond. Vocal Horizons also performs for private events, weddings and funerals.
