Your involvement in Silver Chord is always optional but always encouraged. The more people that participate in a performance, the more fun it is for the choir and the audience. Please join us at our performances whenever you can.
We perform roughly twice a month at various care homes. We also sing for some community events and we have a year-end concert at the beginning of June. Check the right side of the page for upcoming performances, or look at our Calendar.
We practise on Monday afternoons from 2:00 until 4:00. We don’t meet on statutory holidays. Check our Calendar for rehearsal times.
Most of us don’t read music. If you can, that’s wonderful. We do some simple harmony work but most of our songs are sung in unison. Nobody sings solos. If you’re looking for a place to showcase your soloist skills, you might not find us a good fit! Scary stuff?…
Good heavens, no! Drop in to a rehearsal and see if you like us!
It would be nice if you could carry a tune and sing comfortably as part of a group. We’re not a professional choir. Our mandate is to have fun making music and sharing that enjoyment with others.
You need to be a member of the Wilson Centre, which is the seniors’ centre of the City of Port Coquitlam. Choir membership is an additional $22.00 annually, payable by the end of October. You’ll be given one set of printed music for the current season’s repertoire. We ask that…
We presently practise in the Gathering Place at Leigh Square: 2253 Leigh Square, Port Coquitlam, BC V3C 3B8.
