2023-24 SEASON NOTICE: WE ARE CURRENTLY REBUILDING OUR WEBSITE SO THINGS MAY LOOK A LITTLE OUT OF PLACE. SEE BELOW FOR INFORMATION ABOUT OUR MAY CONCERT WITH THE ‘HEART CRY’ ENSEMBLE AND HOW TO GET TICKETS

Join us on Saturday, May 4th and/or Sunday May, 5th as we present ‘My God is a Rock – Songs to celebrate God’s faithfulness’ along with the Heart Cry Ensemble.

This unaccompanied choral concert will feature each ensemble with their own set of selections that span styles and centuries – from the Renaissance composers of Donato, Gesualdo and Durante, to the contemporary flavours of Stephanie Martin, Shawn Kirchner, Mark Miller and Dan Schutte.

We will then join choral forces as a mass choir to share the rich proclamations of Hagenberg, Stutzman, Chesnokov and Clausen along with Gospel favourites arranged by Alice Parker and Moses Hogan.

Saturday evening’s concert will be at St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church in Kitchener.

Sunday afternoon’s concert will be at the Wallenstein Bible Chapel, in Wallenstein

Featuring renowned cellist, Ben Bolt-Martin, these pieces take a Lenten dive into the hearts and minds of those gathered around the foot of the cross after Christ’s crucifixion and death.

We will also be joined by the Menno Youth Ensemble, directors Mykayla Turner and Joel Woods.

This concert will include Gabriel Fauré’s eloquent ‘Requiem’ – a piece he considered a lullaby, in both material and form – Randall Thompson’s thrilling and exuberant a cappella setting of the prophecy of Isaiah, ‘Peaceable Kingdom’, and 37 yr-old Daniel Elder’s haunting ‘Three Nocturnes’.
