About this Event
Featuring Choirs for Change's ECMA-nominated choir Polaris and our new upper-voice choir Astra, Celebrations: Crowded Table uses choral music to explore themes of food sovereignty and insecurity. The concert program includes contemporary choral pieces, “Eat Your Vegetables” by John Muehleisen and “Potato Wassail” by Nova Scotian composer Emily Doolittle, and choral arrangements of pop musicians, such as "Hunger" by Florence & the Machine, "To Be Alright” by AURORA, and “Crowded Table” by The Highwomen,
In addition to the concert program, this event will feature representatives from Brunswick Street Mission to share their message with audiences. There will be a 50/50 raffle in support of Brunswick Street Mission at both concerts.
A limited number of tickets will be available to purchase at the door, with a Pay-What-You-Can option for those that require accessible pricing.
