Montreal Gospel Choir Online Concert

A bit of shameless self-promotion from me. You’ve probably heard me sing at church, but did you know I’m also in a Gospel choir?

In the midst of Covid-19 restrictions, Montreal Gospel Choir, under the direction of Carol Bernard, has recorded a live concert featuring nearly 60 singers – myself included – and a band. We recorded the performance in a beautiful church outside Montreal and are feeling proud and excited to share it with you on Saturday, May 15th (tomorrow)!

Being in MGC has taken me out of my comfort zone in many ways: learning songs by ear instead of with sheet music, trying different vocal techniques, having to move!! – and for this concert, another first: singing into a microphone. I love it all and I especially love the people I’ve met.

Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop! will be streamed May 15th at 8pm Eastern time (Greenwich-5) but will remain available for another 48 hours. Tickets are $20 CDN tax included. I understand that money is tight for some people right now, so no pressure and no guilt if that is the case. I do feel confident that those who purchase tickets will feel they got their money’s worth. When you buy a ticket online you will be sent a unique link to watch the concert. Here is a short video from one of our concerts back when live audiences were a thing – as they will be again! Find ticket info at montrealgospelchoir.com
