You're Invited to Sing!
The 2024-25 season for the Oratorio choir will commence on Monday, September 9 at 7:30PM. Registration will begin at 7:00PM so feel free to come early to register and pick up your music packets. Rehearsal will begin at 7:30PM sharp.
Our artistic director, Marcia McLean, says:
This will be my last session as director of the SC Oratorio choir. It has been an honour to be the artistic director and conductor of the choir for many years, but I feel it is time that a younger director take over the baton. Let us celebrate together and join in song for this upcoming Christmas season! See you on September 9!
The Swift Current Oratorio Choir provides an opportunity for competent, committed choristers to learn and perform quality music in and from a variety of musical genres and eras. The choir has 70 members and also includes under their umbrella an auditioned choir called Prairie Spirit.
