About
Vespera:
The Vespera Women's Choir
of Toronto is dedicated to performing the music written since 1900. We
especially enjoy working with young composers in developing
great new repertoire for equal voices.
Along with their classical focus, Vespera embraces the popular
forms from the 20th century, including jazz, gospel and
everything in between. We are very fortunate to have a
unique blend of excellent singers, both choral and soloists of
many styles. We hope you'll join us for some great music!
