Edmonton Vocal Minority
Let YOUR voice be heard
Edmonton's Queer chorus is looking for singers...
What is Edmonton Vocal Minority
EVM is a mixed-voice chorus made up of singers with all ranges of ability. Although EVM is a proudly Queer choir, you don't have to be Queer to be a member. You will find EVM to be accepting, friendly, and fun. A place to feel safe as well as a place to explore your musical talent.
EVM at the 2006 Unison Festival
The chorus is conducted by Paula Roberts who provides great vocal coaching each week along with teaching the exciting and varied repertoire. Brad Heintzman is the choir's accompanist and sometime arranger who brings many years of experience and knowledge to the group. EVM's General Manager and Assistant Music Director is Kirk Kryvenchuk, who works with Paula and the Board to ensure that the organisation runs smoothly.
Joining Edmonton Vocal Minority
Joining is as simple as attending one of the open rehearsals at the beginning of the season. This year the first rehearsal is on Monday, 14.September. Anyone interested in becoming a member is welcome to come and give the choir a try for a few weeks before making the decision to join.
EVM Performing at Convocation Hall
