Formed in 1976, the North Shore Chorus is a community choir based in North Vancouver, BC, Canada. It is a non-auditioned choir that draws its 60 members primarily from North and West Vancouver – the North Shore.

The choir rehearses once a week and performs two or three concerts each year, often collaborating with other amateur organizations. It also performs in the Community as a “public service”.

Its repertoire ranges from pop, jazz and folksong arrangements to madrigals, part-songs and major works with orchestra.

Rehearsals for the 2010/2011 Season start on Wednesday, September 8th, 2010 at Mount Seymour United Church, 1200 Parkgate, North Vancouver and, except for a break at Christmas, will continue every Wednesday until early May.

Those who are interested in joining can find more information at New Members or you may contact us at info@nschorus.com

 

Christmas Concerts 2010

The Reluctant Dragon

The Reluctant Dragon is a wonderful children’s story for grown-ups by Kenneth Grahame about a dragon who prefers writing poetry to fighting. A narrator weaves the story of the concern of the villagers of the threat of the dragon with St George coming to the rescue—at first for the villagers and then for the Dragon and the boy who has befriended him. The musical arrangement is by John Rutter.

We will also sing a setting of the famous carol from from Kenneth Grahame’s
Wind in the Willows. Other sets include “The trees of Christmas”and “Christmas Day, Christmas Night”

As is our tradition there will be an audience sing-along set of well known Christmas carols.
