Welcome to the Healey Willan Singers website. This ensemble is looking forward to another season of great music making. For this season, the choir will present their annual Christmas concert on Sunday, December 15 at 3:00 p.m. with a concert of lullabies for the season to calm the busyness of the Christmas rush. As the 2025 Easter season approaches, on Saturday, April 12 at 8:00 p.m., the singers will give the Toronto premiere of Norwegian composer Kim André Arnesen's setting of Stabat Mater. This is his companion piece to his setting of the Gloria, which the Healey Willan Singers performed over a decade ago. In addition to the Stabat Mater, the choir will close out the season with a performance of Gabriel Fauré’s most reflective setting of the Requiem, arranged for upper voices.
Come and join us for another exciting season of great choral music!
