## Rehearsal Details: Thursday evenings 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m, Earl Bales Community Centre 4169 Bathurst St., just south of Sheppard, in Toronto. Email our membership chair, if you are interested in attending a rehearsal. **Lisa Taylor: 647-886-1766, [membershipchair@torontoaccolades.com](mailto:membershipchair@torontoaccolades.com)** Do you love to sing? Do you love performing for live audiences? The Toronto Accolades Chorus brings women-centric singers together to sing and perform a cappella harmony. Harmony connects people from all backgrounds, ages, and musical abilities to create a community where you can not only sing, but find a space to connect with other strong and dedicated people just like you. For decades, we've provided a venue for singers to express themselves, make quality music together, and form bonds beyond measure, and we invite you to join us for the ride. We welcome guests and work with them to find out their voice range and to determine what part (lead, tenor, baritone or bass) they would sing best. Guests are given a music folder and encouraged to participate in singing with the chorus in subsequent weeks. Although we continually strive for musical excellence, prior musical training is not necessary to belong to our chorus. We provide everyone with sheet music, audio learning tracks, education and guidance. At the end of 6 weeks, we ask each prospective member to audition, to ensure that they can hold their part in a four-part harmony song.

I took the group to a few of these already.

**On Sunday, April 19th, join me for A Night in Venice - Johann Strauss, performed by the Toronto Operetta Theatre, and commissioned by** t**he Toronto Symphony Orchestra, in association with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, TO Live, and the National Arts Centre’s National Creation Fund.** Set in “the most beautiful city in the world, this sparkling operetta by “Waltz King” Johann Strauss II unfolds during Carnival, where disguises, romance, and waltzes come to life along the city’s iconic canals. The story follows the flirtatious Duke, his scheming barber, and a cascade of mistaken identities involving senators, cooks, and cabaret singers. Amid gondolas, masked balls, and romantic entanglements, chaos unfolds as characters swap roles to pursue love or ambition. With Strauss’s sparkling waltzes and comedic twists, the operetta celebrates charm, deception, and the joy of revelry.
