Choirs for Change presents:
​A Place to Dream

Choirs for Change is proud to present A Place to Dream, a concert experience with Polaris and featuring guest choir Northern Star Chorale.

The concert is a continuing exploration of Choirs for Change's season-long theme of displacement, and will aim to explore the impact of displacement on a local level. Partnering with local gospel choir the Northern Star Chorale - led by Shawn Downey - the programme will feature a selection of choral repertoire by Black composers. With texts by African American poets Langston Hughes and Paul Laurence Dunbar, audiences will be moved by the visions of hope and perseverance the choirs share, and uplifted by the beauty of gospel music.

​A Place to Dream

Choirs for Change is proud to present A Place in the Sun, a concert experience with Astra and featuring the Halifax Ukrainian Children's Choir. 

This concert continues our season-long exploration of the theme of displacement, with music inspired by the vision of seeing the sun rise after a difficult night. The choir will find a place to call home - a safe resting spot after a long and trying journey. They will invite audience members into a feeling of community, connection, and being good neighbours. The programme features music by Moira Smiley, Katerina Gimon, Andrew Balfour, and Old Man Luedecke. Astra will be joined by the Halifax Ukrainian Children's Choir, who will be performing a set called "Ukrainian Spring Mystery", a traditional Ukrainian Vesnyankas (spring song) with movement and storytelling.
