That Choir was formed in the spring of 2008 by Craig Pike and 14 of his actor friends who wanted to create and share a Music experience together. That Choir now brings together over 25 members with diverse backgrounds in work and study, and a mixture of trained and untrained voices. New Canadian artists are important for That Choir to nurture and have already performed new works by J. Scott Brubacher as well as Reza Jacobs in December 2010. Also in December of 2010, That Choir invited Canadian Theatre Artist Nancy Palk to read Dylan Thomas's " A Child's Christmas in Wales" as part of That Choir Carols - an annual celebration of the Holidays. As That Choir looks forward into 2011, it is becoming well known for its a cappella repertoire of many styles and periods with a strong focus on storytelling. less

"Each second we live is a new and special moment,
a never returning moment.
We should tell every child:
"Do you know what you are?
You are a miracle!
You are wonderful!
In the whole wide world there is no-one like you!""
