Vancouver Children's Choir

The Vancouver Children’s Choir is renowned as one of the finest choirs of its kind in Canada. Since 1983, the Choir has provided young singers with the opportunity to learn the foundations of choral music from plainsong and Renaissance polyphony to twentieth-century masterpieces and new commissions.

For nearly forty years, the Vancouver Children’s Choir has offered excellent vocal training for children from age 7 to 17 and a wide variety of performance experiences, including singing for His Majesty King Charles III (as HRH the Prince of Wales), the Dalai Lama, Archbishop Desmond Tutu and world-renowned artists and musicians including Cirque du Soleil, Fretwork and Jackie Chan.

The Choir pursues a varied programme of recordings, concerts and tours, giving performances under the direction of founder Rupert Lang. The Choir has brought their voices to a wide variety of famous spaces such as Carnegie Hall in New York, St. Peter’s in Rome, Coventry Cathedral in England, and St. Vitus Cathedral in Prague. The VCC has released five recordings and recorded soundtrack work for Lionsgate Productions, Disney, the Junos, NBC and Paramount Pictures, as well as provided vocals for artists such as Judith Forst, Jim Byrnes, and the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra. The Choir rehearses at historic Christ Church Cathedral, the oldest building in downtown Vancouver and one of the city's most beautiful and acoustically rich venues.
