The Village Choir, which will perform publicly for the first time on Saturday night, formed nearly three years ago, with close to 100 members involved at its peak.

Where: Alix Goolden Performance Hall, 907 Pandora St. Not every choir, be it amateur or professional, has the same end goal in mind. Some favour programming built around classical music, while outfits such as the newly formed Village Choir favour a more contemporary approach.

Swain, a Juno Award nominee who has been a member of folk groups The Bills and The Duhks, and Butterfield, a classically trained singer-songwriter and former member of the group Fox Glove, both have long careers in music, including stints with several amateur and professional choirs. It took a village to not only bring the Village Choir together, but to keep it running through the pandemic as well. The choir formed nearly three years ago, with close to 100 members involved at its peak. When the pandemic arrived, provincial regulations scuttled in-person activity. For the next two years, Swain and Butterfield ran a variety of practices, both online and in outdoor locales such as Beacon Hill Park.
