Holiday Happenings

  • Read more about Holiday Happenings

New Year. New Hobby. New Members Program.

Auditions are over.  Voice placement done.  A new "class" has begun!

Our New Members Program is well underway and we are meeting with potential New Members on Zoom for the remainder of the 6-week program, wrapping up towards the end of February.

We are learning a new song together and honing our performance and vocal skills each week.  Operating in a virtual world has its challenges, but the dedicated team behind the scenes has made so many things possible.  We love seeing those new faces on Zoom and cannot wait to meet them in person and to ring those chords!

For more details, please click on the Join Us tab or email [email protected] 

 

Singing Greeting Card

Before the holiday season, Canadian Showtime Chorus members were joined by many Holiday Chorus singers, representing women with a love of song from around the world, to create this singing greeting card. They responded to our call to participate in a virtual chorus to celebrate the season in song and to enjoy a true sense of community.

Although 2021 has begun, please continue to enjoy our Singing Greeting card and feel free to share it with all your Friends on Social Media.

International Contest Results

The 2019 International competition may be over, but our training has only just begun!  

Canadian Showtime Chorus returns from New Orleans with a very respectful finish in our competitive sport of 4-part barbershop-style a cappella singing.  

Up against one of the toughest fields on the globe, team CSC accomplished many firsts with our one-year new Director, Joe Connelly.  We debuted not only a brand new costume to rave reviews, but also an original chart to the world.  Our risky ballad choice, "Love of my Life" by the iconic band Queen, left the audience eager to hear what comes next in our CSC evolution.

Just wanted to extend a HUGE thank you to you and the Canadian Showtime Chorus for being a part of Red Dress on Monday.  It was an absolute pleasure to have you - the guests really enjoyed the performance as well. You are beautifully talented group of women.  Thank you for being with us. Enjoy the weekend, Lindsay

Marion Martell, Board of Director, Patient Alumni, University of Ottawa Heart Institute

I want to thank  you and the Canadian ShowTime Chorus women for providing the Jeanne Fuller Red Dress  Golf Classic group of women with your wonderful singing. It is really hard to keep a group of women quiet for very long but you women did it.  All of the women really enjoyed the performance. Please thank  the group that were with  you last evening . It was truly enjoyable. Thanks again to Everyone. Regards, Marion

Blake Duffy, Account Manager, Group Sales, Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group

I hope you are all warmed up after a very chilly Sunday afternoon. I wanted to personally thank you and the entire Canadian Showtime Chorus family. It was a pleasure to work with you and your team. The performance was world class and our production team was very impressed. The performance brought joy to our fans and certainly kicked the game off in a perfect fashion. I look forward to working together in the future and please thank the entire chorus for me. All the best, Blake

Twitter universe literally BLEW UP!! Thanks to our SM goddesses!  Stuff like

“You did SO great! Thanks for performing with us today!” “We just need #FuryFC to play as well as the anthem choir did their job!” “You were brilliant hope to see you @REDBLACKS too!” “Amazing. Please come back”

Mark Goudie, CEO of OSEG, sent through Direct Message on Twitter after hearing our anthem for the Ottawa Fury FC game

Holy Crap.  That was outstanding!  I knew you would be good, but that was 10/10 good. 1,000% singing for the RedBlacks will happen next!

 

Kristen Johnston, Manager, Event Production, OSEG

Hello CSC PR team! Blake and I are pleased to inform you that the Canadian Showtime Chorus impressed our Game Day Producer and he has approved for the first time ever, a choir singing the anthem at one of our 2019 REDBLACKS game. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful voices with our fans. All the best

Tara Shannon, award-winning Canadian singer & songwriter

“We did it!  Thank you so much for participating in this year's event in memory of our Butterfly Child Jonathan Pitre. The feedback from the show was overwhelmingly positive.  Canadian Showtime Chorus was the talk of the evening. And....we raised $6,204.51 for DEBRA CANADA!!”
