Viva Chorale, and Vancouver jazz/folk band Illiteratty are joining forces to bring you the bespoke tale of Mr. Anxiety, a trepidatious soul who, despite his fear of joining in, craves connection and community. He bravely decides to attend a community choir rehearsal one night (completely out of character!) where he has a somewhat traumatic yet transformative experience and learns for himself about the power of music to bring people together, create community and foster an atmosphere of joy.
This is not your regular choral concert! The set list was co-curated and co-developed by our Artistic Director Caroni Young and Illiteratty founder and composer Earle Peach. In fact, Earle has written new arrangements for a couple of his pieces just for this show.
For the price of a regular ticket you get a multi-faceted performance by our choir AND a band of super-seasoned and talented musicians all swinging together…. perhaps even inviting you to join in!
Tickets are available online through www.artspring.ca or by calling their box office.
