The celebrated Grammy Award-winning vocal ensemble returns with a program of a cappella choral music, ranging from Renaissance masterworks to roof-raising spirituals.

Chanticleer has been hailed as “the world’s reigning male chorus” by The New Yorker and is known around the world as “an orchestra of voices” for its wide-ranging repertoire and dazzling virtuosity. Founded in San Francisco in 1978 by singer and musicologist Louis Botto, Chanticleer quickly took its place as one of the most prolific recording and touring ensembles in the world, selling over one million recordings and performing thousands of live concerts to audiences around the world.

Destined to be one of the great choral events of the decade, the world-renowned Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir (EPCC), led by esteemed founder and conductor Tõnu Kaljuste, returns to Toronto for a tribute to Arvo Pärt’s 90th birthday. A favourite of Toronto audiences, the EPCC has captivated listeners under Soundstreams’ auspices since 2000, with concerts that regularly sell out. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to experience their luminous sound in the acoustic splendor of Yorkminster Park Baptist Church. The program features some of Pärt’s most celebrated works, alongside works by Philip Glass, Evelin Seppar, Luciano Berio, and others. It also includes the world premiere of a new Soundstreams commission by Estonian-Canadian composer Riho Esko Maimets — adding a special local touch to this celebration of the legendary Estonian composer.

Hailed by National Public Radio as “one of today’s most compelling composers for the human voice,” Sarah Kirkland Snider’s Mass for the Endangered is a poignant choral meditation on the fragility of our natural world. Blending Nathaniel Bellows’ evocative poetry with the traditional Latin Mass, this work is a plea for compassion and stewardship in the face of environmental crisis. Also presented alongside this work is Andrew Balfour’s Gaze Upon the Trees, R. Murray Schafer’s virtuosic Wild Bird for violin and harp, as well as works by Chris Hutchings, Olivier Messiaen, and Arvo Pärt. Soundstreams’ opening concert is a deeply moving reflection on our responsibility, relationship and connectivity to the planet and its creatures.
