The United Voices Choir (UVC), is an inclusive, auditioned choir based in Vancouver, BC, which focuses on larger choral works with orchestra and soloists.
Under the direction of Dr. Greg Caisley, our energetic, passionate, and talented Artistic Director, our performance repertoire ranges from Bach’s St. John Passion to works by Brahms, Vivaldi, Handel, Haydn, Fauré, Poulenc, Puccini, Saint-Saëns, Schubert, Finzi, Vaughan Williams, and Lauridsen. In recent years, we have performed Bach’s Mass in B minor, Handel’s Messiah, Mozart’s Requiem, Brahms’ Ein deutsches Requiem, Mendelssohn’s Psalm 42, Cherubini’s Requiem in C minor, and Rheinberger’s Mass in C. In Spring 2025, we performed Handel’s Dixit Dominus and Coronation Anthems, and in December 2024, we repeated our popular Sing-Along Messiah.
We are a friendly, caring, sociable, and supportive group of approximately 60 diverse members. Amongst us you will find young people, retirees, and those in between. Our musical skills range from amateur to more advanced singers who all share a love of choral music and a desire to sing together with others. We rehearse on Tuesday evenings, September through May, from 7.00-9.30pm at St. Paul’s Anglican Church, 1130 Jervis St. We also attend occasional additional sectionals.
The opportunity to learn about and sing major choral works highly motivates us. However, the other key factor that draws us to the UVC is the unique privilege of performing such wonderful music accompanied by professional level orchestras and soloists. For choral singers who have never been supported by professional instrumentalists and soloists, this is an experience that should not be missed, as these professionals bring choral singing to a whole new level. The excitement that one feels walking onto the stage as our orchestra is warming up is palpable and, once the baton drops and the performance begins, singers feel exhilarated, inspired, uplifted, and very fortunate.
