About VANCOUVER HIGH SPIRITS CHOIR

PERFORMANCES

We perform two major concerts each year, one in January and the other in June. Our concerts are heart-warming and memorable events, providing our audience with a wonderful musical experience of our joy and camaraderie. After each concert, we host a brief reception with refreshments for our audience.

High Spirits is also an outreach choir, singing for people who normally don't get the opportunity to hear live music. We perform at retirement homes, hospices, festivals and at community events such as the Van Dusen Festival of Lights.

HISTORY

High Spirits has been performing since 1993 and was founded by Music Director Ieva Wool. We have grown from a small group of 15 singers to a full mixed-voice choir of 60. After years of song, High Spirits has developed a reputation for polish, professionalism and quality in our presentations.
