Schola Cantorum is an auditioned ensemble of staff, faculty, alumni/ae, students, and friends of the University of St. Michael’s College. Drawing from the rich treasure trove of the Church’s song, they perform three concerts a year for significant feasts and seasons in the liturgical calendar. The choir is dedicated to the aim of spiritual enrichment of the university community through the transformative beauty of sacred music.
Come hear Matt Pines’ wonderful new arrangements of favourite standards from the American Popular Songbook. Stop by for delicious Indian food or a drink at the bar, and enjoy swinging classic jazz standards.
For the best listening experience, make sure to reserve a table at the front of the restaurant for 6:30 pm, in order to get your dinner order in before the music starts at 7:00 pm. There are some tables with a blocked view–ask for a table near the music. Menu at www.durbar.ca. Reserve at 416-762-4441. No cover.
