50 Years and Counting!
Help us celebrate the chorus’s 50th anniversary.
On Saturday, September 22, 2018, the Toronto Accolades will be celebrating its 50th anniversary in Harmony, Inc., and the chorus is inviting all of its friends and former members to a party. The celebration will be held from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at St. Elizabeth of Hungary Church near Bayview and Sheppard in Toronto, so save the date on your calendar.
The Accolades would like to make this a reunion to remember. Come and re-connect with people you haven’t seen for a long time. Sing a few songs with the chorus. Enjoy good friendship, food and fun. And any choruses or quartets attending are invited to sing a song for guests at the party. For further information, see further down on this page.
Founded in 1968, Toronto Accolades is an all-female a cappella choral group singing four-part harmony in the barbershop style. We are members of Harmony, Inc., an international organization promoting friendship and personal growth through music and music education. Our repertoire includes a variety of music, both old and new, fast and slow. We put on shows, compete at Harmony, Inc. annual contests, and perform within the community. Please browse through our website to find out more about us.
Come and experience the joy of a cappella singing with the Toronto Accolades. We meet every Thursday evening, 7:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. at Willowdale Baptist Church, 15 Olive Ave. (Yonge and Finch) for fun, friendship and song!
Email our Membership Chair for more information. Plan to attend a rehearsal. Come and find your voice!
