The TCS Choir offers a friendly, supportive atmosphere in which committed and enthusiastic choristers can expand their musical repertoire and become better singers. Membership is open to anyone in the Greater Toronto Area who wants to sing, is interested in learning, is able to attend rehearsals regularly and is willing to be an active participant in choir events. There are no auditions, but some previous choral experience is expected.
