Etobicoke Centennial Choir’s annual holiday concert is a cherished seasonal tradition for our choristers and audiences. This year, we are bringing beautiful Christmas music directly to you, with a streamed concert filmed live at Humber Valley United Church.
This free one-hour concert features French composer Camille Saint-Saëns’ Oratorio de Noël (Christmas Oratorio) for organ, choir and five soloists. Written when he was just 23 years old, his lush and lyrical music creates a sense of awe and wonder as the movements gradually build from solos to a quintet, with the full chorus intervening.
ECC’s gifted section leads will share the spotlight as featured soloists.
We will round out the concert with a festive selection of lovely and lively Christmas carols to help kindle the holiday spirit.
With joy and gratitude, we invite you to enjoy our musical offering!
The concert will be available for streaming on December 16 for one week through the following link:
