Our trademark is singing all Concerts by memory, which means that with a changing repertoire, our members have to be willing to work hard. We sing widely around our own region in France but are looking to exchange with a choir further afield in the near future.

These are strange, hard times: we must #stayathome for our own health, to protect other people and to fight a virus called Covid-19. But Music doesn't stop and the Vox Canora Singers, even though physically distant, want to try to "Fix You" with this video where you'll find the typical Vox Canora moments of irony.

Òran began as an alumni offshoot of the Kokopelli Youth Choir, but it has since developed into a group made up of young adults from all over Edmonton and the surrounding area. Each brings a different viewpoint to the group, but all are united in their passion for singing. The choir stresses the same philosophical goals as its younger counterpart, striving to achieve musical excellence and artistic integrity, as well as combining new interpretive techniques with more traditional Choral expertise. Above all, the group is dedicated to sharing joy in song with each other, with other choirs, and with audiences around Edmonton and across Canada. Òran was featured at the 2005 Festival 500 in St. John’s Newfoundland, and more recently, participated in the Laval International Choral Festival in Quebec in July 2009, as well as a cultural tour to Cuba in May 2011. Members of Òran travelled to Europe for a tour in July 2012 including stops in France, ...    Lass="view_less_link" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="$(this).getParent().getPrevious().style.display='';$(this).getParent().style.display='none';">less
