Bio
A Diverse Membership!
London
Pro Musica enters its 39th Season as a vibrant mixed-voice choir
organized and run by its members. LPM performs an extensive range
of classical music--from the medieval to the contemporary–both
for accompanied and unaccompanied voices. From its inception, LPM
has actively supported Canadian composers/musicians and has sought
to foster an interest in Canadian choral music. The choir also has
a repertoire of popular music, including jazz and folk renditions,
and selections from musical theatre. LPM remains the oldest unaffiliated
concert choir in London with a current membership of approximately
fifty singers.
LPM offers an
annual subscription series of three concerts, and it typically accepts
3-4 contracted engagements per year. In addition, the choir performs
regularly with Orchestra London Canada, a collaborative relationship
that dates back more than twenty-five years. LPM actively pursues
a cultural service role through benefit and outreach performances
for local community organizations. LPM has also appeared as guest
artists with other ensembles throughout southwest and central Ontario
and has participated in several world premiere performances.
Since the 2000-2001
season, one of LPM’s priorities has been to showcase the exciting
range of artistic possibilities available locally through collaboration
with other music organizations. In our recent 2005-2006 season alone,
LPM performed with Orchestra London, the A.B. Luca Secondary School
choir, Stephen Holowitz, Fiona Wilkinson, Jennifer WHite and Robert
McMaster and jazz group AFTER FOUR & MORE.
