It typically assembles a choir for a brief time before each performance, then disbands until just before the next concert when a new choir is formed. The singers may or may not be the same each time. The choir is known for its freshness of sound and heart felt connections with the listener.  

Arrangement written and performed by Dr. Jeanette Gallant with choral accompaniment by the Hong Kong Children's Choir and members of the Vancouver Chamber Choir.
