Chorale et orchestre du Lord Byng Secondary School

Cette chorale et orchestre d’une école secondaire de Colombie-Britannique nous visite le temps d’un court concert. Voici la description de la chorale, envoyée par l’école:

The Lord Byng Chamber Choir is an ensemble within the Fine Arts Academy program at Lord Byng Secondary School, located on the west side of Vancouver near the University of British Columbia.

This ensemble is comprised of students in Grades 10 to 12, and rehearses off time table. This enthusiastic group of singers travel locally and abroad to perform in festivals and venues including performances in France and Belgium, in Montreal, Seattle Heritage Festival, Whistler Con Brio Festival and Sun Peaks Festival. Working closely with celebrated clinicians and adjudicators in North America, the Chamber Choir continues to learn and aspire to singing beautiful choral music.

Lord Byng Senior Honour Orchestra

The Lord Byng Senior Honour Orchestra is an auditioned-only performance group that meets off-timetable.  The purpose of the ensemble is to learn advanced-level string music to be performed in concerts, competitions and in charity venues.  Students strive to incorporate not just the notes and rhythms, but also encapsulate the emotions and meaning behind the music’s intended purpose.  Musicians enjoy playing in venues throughout Vancouver and beyond to share their enthusiasm of community and performance.  The musical director is Ms. Ruth Anderson.
