Laudate Singers tours the verdant isles for a cappella music from scintillating madrigals to contemporary masterpieces. In a nod to Canada's historical ties to these islands, composer-in-residence Chris Sivak’s "the everlasting voices" with words by WB Yeats will be premiered. Composers featured from England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales include William Byrd ~ Ralph Vaughan Williams ~ Karl Jenkins ~ Tarik O'Regan ~ Bill Whelan ~ James MacMillan $25 adults; $20 seniors; $10 with student ID; kids 12 & under free.
