Join Us

If you are a visitor coming through our city, a Swiss living in Canada, simply interested in choral music - or just missed our last concert and can't make it to the next one - we welcome you to come und visit us.

We can usually be found at our practice sessions on Tuesdays from 7:30 - 9:30 pm at Pleasantview United Church, 10672 - 62 Avenue in Edmonton.  Our doors are always open, but if you want to ensure we are there, you may want to contact us beforehand.  We regularly enjoy our company over a glass of wine later in the evening at some other undisclosed places.

'I cannot sing!' is what we often hear from people.  Most of us had said that before we joined.  We take pride in our singing but we are amateurs at heart, and we all have busy lives that limit our involvement.  Although we are fortunate to have some excellent singers in our ranks, most of us have learned by simply joining.  And we stand in the tradition of amateur folk music - some of the best performers of our music do not read notes.  We practice once per week from fall to spring, have some additional performances, and try to attend at least 60% of our events.

All you need is an interest in Swiss choral music, which is rich in colour because of the four different languages and cultural groups we represent.  About two thirds of us are Swiss, but we welcome and enjoy the diversity of all backgrounds in our choir, and the enriching fellowship that grows from there on our shared Canadian basis.  If you are a Swiss living abroad and wish to enjoy our fellowship and roots, or if you are simply intrigued by our performances and interested in growing with us in our appreciation of choral music - you are welcome to join us!
