The Vancouver Chamber Choir is Canada's outstanding professional vocal
ensemble. Based on the Pacific Coast in British Columbia, conductor Jon
Washburn and his twenty singers are noted for their diverse repertoire and
performing excellence. The ACDA Choral Journal has declared the VCC to be
"as fine a vocal chamber group as any in the world today." The VCC and Jon
Washburn won the Margaret Hillis Award for Choral Excellence, recognition of
their outstanding contribution to the choral art. Mr. Washburn and the
Choir were honoured with two awards at the 2000 Chorus America Conference,
including the prestigious Louis Botto award, given in recognition of
Washburn's innovative and entrepreneurial spirit in the development of a
professional choral ensemble of exceptional quality. In addition to a 10
concert subscription series, the Choir tours extensively nationally and
internationally and hosts 5 award-winning educational programmes.
