Looking for a fabulous children's choir? A community of singers from 5-18 years old, that values quality music education, exceptional musical experiences, and builds leadership and community engagement? Come to Cantiamo Choirs of Ottawa's Open House on Monday, April 29! Hear our choristers.... meet our Choral Education Team.... talk to our Board members!

At Cantiamo Women's Choir's May 11th concert "Secret Wisdom" we will have the pleasure of premiering local Ottawa composer Jack Hui Litster's new choral work, "My Body is a Vessel." Jack wrote this song in collaboration with poet Grace Lau, taking the words from a poem of the same title that Grace published in 2021 in her book "The Language We Were Never Taught to Speak." The words speak of the ways that our bodies are connected to the sun, the air, the salt, the world that surrounds us. The words flow in song as the harmonies swell, rising and falling like a journey up a mountain and back. We are so excited to bring this beautiful new song to life!

Sing a song of "silly," sing a song of slumber! Cantiamo Choirs of Ottawa's children's and youth choirs invite you to our spring concert on Sunday, June 9! Songs to tickle your funnybone, songs that take you back to your favourite lullabies - you'll hear them all! Tickets available on Eventbrite.ca

Nothing beats working with the composer when learning a new commission! Cantiamo Women's Choir will premier Jack Hui Litster's "My Body is a Vessel" at our upcoming concert on May 11, "Secret Wisdom." Look forward to a feature on this fabulous piece - coming soon on Cantiamo's social media!

Another exciting concert for the Cantiamo Women's Choir!! In keeping with tradition, we will premier a commission by a Canadian composer. This year, we are thrilled to premier Jack Hui Litster's new work, "My Body Is a Vessel." A beautiful addition to the choral repertoire!

It's "Story Time" for the Girls Choir as they hear Founding Artistic Director Jackie Hawley read "Alice in Wonderland." This classic tale inspired Sarah Quartel's "Alice;" pondering the original tale helps choristers bring more meaning to their interpretation. Each group chose a phrase to dramatize to further enhance meaning. A holistic approach to music!

Composing with the mind, composing with the "heart!" Cantiamo Training Choir collaborates to create "heartfelt" compositions to share with each other. Great reinforcement for literacy, listening and cooperation. A shoutout to Girls Choir mentors for leading this activity!

Cantiamo Choirs of Ottawa is grateful to have ad a "home" at Trinity United Church for over 20 years! Our Girls Choir was thrilled to receive an invitation to share spirituals with the congregation for Trinity's closing service to celebrate Black History Month. The choir sang beautifully, participating in a service that included an Anansi tale from Ghana, a thought-provoking sermon and a luncheon, catered by Pastor Junior. A celebration!
