Our Choirs
|
Mississauga's largest community choir. No audition required. New singers always welcome. Come experience the joy of making extraordinary music together. Under the leadership of David Ambrose, MFC performs many concerts, raises money for local charities, records professional CDs, holds an annual choral competition and tours the world.
Our Mission Mississauga Festival Choir is a community choir that enriches lives through music by way of performance, education and outreach - while valuing excellence in choral music performance, education, spirit: celebration, joy and pleasure, and community engagement. |

Mississauga Festival Chamber Choir, formed in 2008, is MFC's auditioned branch. This 26-voice choir is made up almost entirely of members from the main choir, and delights audiences with intimate and challenging works of music.
MFCC performs an annual concert and serves as an ambassador for the larger group, reaching out to the community in a variety of venues from the Port Credit Library to Hammerson Hall. |

Raising Voices is a choir that includes individuals with dementia including Alzheimer’s Disease, their caregivers, and Mississauga Festival Choir volunteer mentors. It is offered free to all participants. Raising Voices is an initiative of Mississauga Festival Choir in close cooperation with Alzheimer Society Peel (ASP). An ASP music therapist works closely with Raising Voices Conductor, Barb Cogan, alongside volunteers to develop and deliver the program.
The choir is comprised of eight weekly 75 minute sessions for two terms per year. Professional and volunteer participants facilitate carefully selected music from the broadway and popular music styles geared towards groups of individuals with dementia and their caregivers.
