As Seen On TV

May 21, 2013 by Out in Harmony

Love it or hate it, we can’t deny that television has changed the world. It educates us, entertains us, and bombards us with advertisements; It divides us, brings us together, and makes the most distant places seem nearby; It shapes our view of the world, affects what we consider to be important issues, expands our horizons with new ideas, tells us what to think, and challenges us to think for ourselves .

Please join Out in Harmony as we sing favorite songs, jingles, and themes from television shows both old and new. It will be a toe tapping walk down memory lane as we resurrect both childhood favorites and current hits, and you will leave singing songs you thought you had forgotten as you head home at the end of the night. “As Seen On TV” will be held Saturday, June 15th at 7:30 pm at Central Presbyterian Church (1155 Thurlow Street -which is wheelchair accessible). Tickts are $15 with $10 concession tickets also available. You can get your tickets from choir members, at Little Sisters’ Emporium, or at the door.

If you are interested in volunteering, please contact denise.garzon@gov.bc.ca by June 3rd.

Outreach tonight

February 20, 2013 by oihdirector

We won’t be having a rehearsal tonight, since we’ll be singing for the lovely folks at Haro Park Centre, a seniors’ residence in the West End. We apologize for any inconvenience, and we’ll resume our regular schedule next week.

What an amazing concert, eh?

January 23, 2013 by Out in Harmony

Thank you to everyone who came out for our January 2013 concert, Eh?, and made it such a success!

We’d like to especially mention thanks to Nicki our director, Dan our accompanist, Blanche our sound dude, Sandra & Galen and the other friendly folks at Central Presbyterian, Jonathan for help setting up the lights, the many volunteers who worked diligently before, during, and after to ensure the whole thing ran smoothly, and of course our audience!

We had a great time, and are looking forward to doing it again!

Our next concert will be Saturday June 15, 2013, also at Central Presbyterian at 7:30pm, so mark your calendars now. It is sure to be a fun time, and we hope you’ll join us.

Come One, Come All!

January 15, 2013 by Out in Harmony

Out in Harmony’s January concert is this Saturday, January 19, 2013 at 7:30 pm at Central Presbyterian Church in Vancouver!

Eh? ~ The Can Con-Cert is bursting with music by Canadian Composers and arrangers, some of whom are familiar (ie Barenaked Ladies, Neil Young, Stan Rogers, Rufus Wainwright, the list goes on…), some of whom are local (ie Brian Tate, Stephen Chatman, Karen New, and many more), and all of whom are fabulous musicians who compose/write/arrange wonderful works that are a pleasure to sing and a joy to listen to. We have music which may give you the giggles, music that may leave you sighing, and some music that might just make you want to get up and dance.

The doors open at 7pm, and tickets are available at the door, or at Little Sisters’ Emporium (at 1238 Davie Street). The church is at 1155 Thurlow Street in Vancouver (convenient to transit along Burrard or Davie Streets), and the accessible entrance is around back. We will have baskets of Canadian-themed items to be raffled off before the end of the night, and a finger food reception afterwards. General Admission tickets are $15, with $10 concession tickets also available. No one will be turned away for lack of funds.

Please join us for this wonderful concert, and support Out in Harmony, -Vancouver’s Gay, Bi, Trans, Queer, Lesbian, & Friends Adult Community Choir.

It’s that time again!

August 30, 2012 by oihdirector

It’s that time again: Out in Harmony will be starting rehearsals soon! Whether you sang with us last year, have been away for a few years, or have been thinking of checking us out, we’d love to see you. If you have any friends you think would enjoy singing with us, we’d love to see them, too! (Even if you can’t make it for the first couple of rehearsals, feel free to join us when you can.)

Our first rehearsal of the new season will be on Sept. 4. As always, rehearsals are Tuesday evenings from 7:30 to 9:45 at St. Margaret’s Cedar Cottage Anglican Church, 1530 E. 22nd Ave. (Please don’t wear anything scented to choir events, and be aware that we have one member who has a severe allergy to marijuana/hemp, so please don’t smell of that, either.)

This year, we will be singing at the Walk For Life on Sunday, Sept. 23, so the first few rehearsals will include some new music, and some singing through of last year’s music in preparation. (The new music for our January concert is going to be all Canadian, though perhaps not the Canadian music you might expect!)

If you have any questions, feel free to browse our FAQs or send us an e-mail.

We look forward to seeing you!
