Our Next Gen Artists
Grand River Chorus continues to focus on youth in the choral arts with the Next Gen Artists’ Programme. This programme aims to connect young and upcoming university singers with our choir and the Brantford community, helping to ensure the legacy of GRC continues for another 25+ years. In partnership with the Faculty of Music at Wilfrid Laurier University, vocalists will be given a sponsored opportunity to perform with the GRC with the potential for solo work. The programme aims to bring new voices to the group and to expand our connection with WLU and young professional performers.
If you would like to support GRC’s endeavour in encouraging emerging vocal talent in our area, please consider making a donation to the Next Gen Artists’ Programme. You can send a cheque to Grand River Chorus, Suite 201-245 King George Road, Brantford, N3R 7N7 or you can send an e-transfer to fundraising@grandriverchorus.com. Donations of $20 or more will receive a tax receipt.
