we're looking forward to singing for you!
In 1788 the Robert Burns sent the poem 'Auld Lang Syne' to the Scots Musical Museum, indicating that it was an ancient song but that he'd been the first to record it on paper. The phrase 'auld lang syne' roughly translates as 'for old times' sake', and the song is all about preserving old friendships and looking back over the events of the year.
For over 200 years, it has been sung all over the world at the start of the New Year, evoking a sense of belonging and fellowship, tinged with nostalgia.
And so it is with us. We at Ingersoll Choral Society extend a hand in friendship to all. We are grateful for our time together. We wish all of our concert-goers, donors, volunteers, business partners and singers PEACE, GOOD HEALTH and PROSPERITY throughout 2019. May it ever be so!

Ingersoll Choral Society members give a shout out to our amazing army of VOLUNTEERS. They are the 'behind-the-scene' folk who transport equipment, serve as greeters and ushers at our concerts, design and maintain our webpage and social media sites, provide professional governance and oversight of our business, take photographs and videos, maintain our huge music library, sew costumes, write dialogue for our shows, and so much more.
Take a bow, dear VOLUNTEER friends of Ingersoll Choral Society. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!!

A little about ourselvesLocated in the picturesque town of Ingersoll, Ontario we are a community choir whose mission is to INFORM, INVOLVE and INSPIRE our members and our audience in song.
Founded in 1990 by Ted Winter and the late Daniel Durksen (June 3, 1954 – February 7, 2018), ours has been a journey of discovery - performing sacred choral works, Broadway show tunes, modern pop songs, music from far away lands and so much more. We love to sing, and to share this passion with you. |
