Congratulations Chor Leoni

CBC Radio reported this morning that Vancouver’s Chor Leoni male-voice choir, who performed at ArtSpring in March 2010, has just returned from a triumphant European tour.

At the Seghizzi International Choral Singing Competition they won an unprecedented number of prizes for excellence of singing in a large number of musical categories. The annual competition, held in Gorizia Italy, brings together major choirs from around the world where winning even one prize is a considerable achievement.

We congratulate Music Director Diane Loomer and the members of the choir whose Salt Spring performance we all remember fondly. Hopefully we can have them back at ArtSpring before long.
