Guest artist for Ceremony of Carols

This concert will feature American-Taiwanese harpist, Charlene Chin. Charlene has transcribed works by Debussy, Scriabin, and Takemitsu.

Charlene started harp at age 10. When asked how she chose such an unusual instrument, her response is that she saw it in a video game. That video game being “The Wind Waker” from Miyamoto and Tezuka’s popular series The Legend of Zelda.

An avid team player, she has performed with Toronto Symphony Orchestra, National Ballet of Canada, Manitoba Chamber Orchestra, Rochester Philharmonic, and Buffalo Philharmonic.

Hear what audience members are saying about Grand River Chorus

"We enjoyed the concert, especially the significant number of pieces that we recognized and love."

"I thought there was intelligence and humour in the selection of music… a little classical (to show what you are capable of), and the contemporary, which more people might enjoy."

"Your hard work was evident (so many new pieces) and the choir seemed relaxed and happy at the same time."

"An authentic and sincere rendering of Handel’s Messiah by the Grand River Chorus. Exceptional orchestra, extraordinary soloists, and a refined choir. Bravo to all the performers!"

"The orchestra and chorus matched beautifully. The scene 3 duet between Sarah McQueen and the lead violinist was absolutely outstanding."

"Wow! What a fabulous performance from the Grand River Chorus and guests! We thoroughly enjoyed it – start to finish. Congratulations to all involved."
