About the CCC
The Canadian Chamber Choir/Choeur de chambre du Canada (CCC) is a national choral ensemble that provides a professional choral environment for Canadian singers, conductors and composers. The CCC has a mandate to perform new and existing Canadian choral works, apprentice choral conductors, and facilitate workshops in all sizes of Canadian communities. Under the artistic direction of Julia Davids, the CCC continues its commitment to promote choral excellence in Canada.

Wherever the Canadian Chamber Choir performs, they are met with praise for their expressive, committed interpretations, and their warm enthusiasm for sharing their gifts in the community. The Canadian Chamber Choir is about opportunity, and about excellence � opportunity for musicians from across the country to gather in song and reach for artistic heights; opportunity for communities, large and small, to share in that experience.

�Beyond brilliant�they brought a fiendishly challenging program of mostly Canadian music�I could go on about shivering pianissimos that defied being profaned by applause, phrasing that was fresh and thoughtful and a tone that called for accompaniment by angelic harps�Don�t miss this choir.�
- Hugh Fraser, Hamilton Spectator
