The Vancouver Bach Family of Choirs is welcoming the change of seasons with SummerSing!, one of its most anticipated events, on May 10 at 2 pm. Taking place at the Chan Centre for the Performing Arts, this vibrant, large-scale concert celebrates community through choral music.
SummerSing! is an annual performance that brings together all nine ensembles from the Vancouver Bach Family of Choirs. The result is a richly layered program that spans ages and experience levels—from young singers just beginning their choral journeys to seasoned adult performers.
This year’s concert centres on folk traditions with music rooted in storytelling and shared cultural memory. The nine ensembles perform individually before joining forces in a full-choir finale, a hallmark of SummerSing! that demonstrates a powerful expression of collective voice. Ultimately, the event emphasizes music’s ability to connect audiences and artists of all generations.
