Nestled in the warmth and beauty of one of Vancouver’s most striking historic venues, Chor Leoni performs a welcoming program of cherished melodies, modern carols, and reimagined folk classics. Songs on the lineup span “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel”, “Silent Night”, “Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day”, and “Maybe This Christmas”. New arrangements of “Joy to the World” and “Angels We Have Heard On High” round out the program.

Chor Leoni will be joined by pianists Tina Chang and Karen-Lee Morlang, violinist Cameron Wilson, bassist Laurence Mollerup, and guitarist Keith Sinclair.
