The Toronto Choral Society (TCS) was founded in 1845, to foster a positive musical environment in which members can learn and develop both musical ability and choral repertoire. In addition, the TCS aims to be an integral part of the community of Toronto, presenting important works from the traditional choral repertoire, exploring the music of the many cultures that make up our community, and making an active contribution to the life of the city by participating in community events.

The Toronto Choral Society is a non-auditioned choir of 120 voices drawn from across the GTA. The TCS also sponsors two sister choirs:

• North 44° is a 22-member auditioned vocal group dedicated to excellence and eclecticism in choral music.
• The Street Haven Women's Choir is an ensemble drawn from the clients of the Street Haven at the Crossroad women's shelter.

Artistic Director and conductor of all three choirs is Geoffrey Butler, who joined the TCS in 1994. Under his guidance, the choir has flourished and grown, performing choral works in a wide variety of styles, from Baroque to jazz. An accomplished tenor, Mr. Butler helps the members of the choir to expand both their musical horizons and their singing abilities.

Accompanist of the TCS is William O'Meara. A talented pianist, organist and harpsichordist, Mr. O'Meara is well-known for traditional solo repertoire as well as his improvised accompaniments at international silent film festivals.
