Pro Coro Canada will lead workshops at Choir Camp Owen Sound in 2026, and perform a concert on Wednesday, July 22, at 7:00 p.m. at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Owen Sound.
Pro Coro Canada is comprised of some of Alberta’s most expert choral scholars and singers, curated from the considerable slate of singers by Artistic Director and Principal Conductor Michael Zaugg for each concert since he was selected for the role in 2012.
Founded in 1981 by Canadian Michel Marc Gervais, the voices of Pro Coro Canada have been shaped by some of the world’s finest choral conductors, including Gervais, Anders Eby (Sweden), Søren Hansen (Denmark), Agnes Grossmann (Austria), and Richard Sparks (USA). Guest conductors have included Elmer Iseler, Diane Loomer, and Brainerd Blyden-Taylor.
Under the direction of Swiss-born Michael Zaugg, the choir is widely recognized as one of Canada’s finest. The choir is particularly proud of its composer-in-residence program, its appointment as Faculty in the Choral Art program at the Banff Centre, and critically acclaimed tours to other provinces within Canada.
Pro Coro Canada believes strongly in building community through partnerships with other organizations on the local, provincial, and national levels. The choir has collaborated with many community choirs, musical ensembles, and soloists in recent years, and has mentored young choral artists through their Emerging Artist Program, which helps foster the careers of singers, composers, and conductors alike.
