Shine The Light- City Soul ChoirFriday December 4th & Saturday Dec 5th at 7:30 pmCanadian Memorial Church (15th and Burrard)
Music is medicine. It inspires, soothes, uplifts and helps us express ourselves in a unique and deeply felt way that otherwise can seem out of reach. The right song at the right time, the feeling of singing, the power of hearing your voice raised in collective sound with others can illuminate our deepest feelings and experiences. City Soul Choir, under the direction of Karla Mundy, invites you to experience the joy and transformation of this powerful force with ‘Shine The Light’ - Friday Dec 4th and Saturday Dec 5th. Backed by the incredible band of Michael Creber (piano), Adam Rohrlick (guitar), Brent Gubbels (bass) and Craig Scott (drums), we will dive into some amazing music from the African-American Gospel tradition, Brazil and South Africa. We will also showcase a collection of timely, honest and gorgeous new music by contemporary female songwriters. So let’s gather on these winter evenings to shine our lights, celebrate, reflect and let the music transform us. See you there!

When City Soul Choir sings, an
earth-shaking vibration of joy hits the listener. The power and energy of this
group of talented musicians is very heavy.

What a great evening! Recently, I heard
the City Soul Choir, conducted by Brian Tate, in a concert of songs that was
both moving and a joy to hear! Brian and Patricia Tate have created in the
City Soul Choir one of the most exciting musical programs Vancouver has to
offer.

The City Soul Choir has the power to draw you in close...everyday people find their extraordinary voices, and what a pleasure that is to behold.
