Welcome to Margaret’s Choir. We are a non-audition community choir. Our purpose is to sing for personal, choral and global harmony. We seek to make a difference for ourselves and for our community. We assemble for a new season and revised repertoire each January and September, under the direction of our Artistic Director, Katy Harmer. Our repertoire is best described as varied and eclectic. In usual times we conclude our season with a benefit concert. Some of our performances can be found on YouTube; just look for Margaret’s Choir. Information on registration and a membership fee can be found on the right-hand column of this web page.

Given the current public health concerns connected to the pandemic, we have not been meeting person and have not put on a concert since December 2019. However, that is not stopped us. We have been rehearsing, primarily using zoom, developing a repertoire in preparation for future opportunity and all the while building choir community. We will be ready, and the community beneficiaries will be very much in need of our performances in the near future.

As of now, we have a plan for the spring season that we hope is responsive to the current safety issues, and leaves open the possibility of resuming direct in person sessions at the earliest time that it is safe to do so.

Therefore, we will begin with online zoom rehearsals starting the second Sunday in January. Registered members  will receive details and a zoom invitation in early January. Our optimistic plan includes an option to transition to a combined in person and zoom rehearsal format at the beginning of March. This change will be determined by the status of the current pandemic and the provincial health advisories at that time. As the time nears, we will provide more information on exactly how that combined format would work. If we do begin in person rehearsals in March, we would set a goal of having a concert in May 2022.

Because of Covid-19 we will have our rehearsals online like last fall.  Normally we meet every Sunday at the First Unitarian Universalist Church of Winnipeg, 603 Wellington Crescent. We will be starting our Spring Session Sunday January 9th.

Season fee is $55, or more or less depending on your circumstances. Please register online.
Fees may be paid either by etransfer to  kerrystrom36@gmail.com (no need for Q&A) or
mail cheque made out to Margaret’s Choir  to Kerry Strom 312 Leighton Ave Winnipeg MB R2K 0J5

If all goes well and we are able to plan a concert for May 2022, we will ask registered members consider providing a further $25 to cover costs connected to that purpose.

There are two seasons: September to December, January to May.
