Sing Niagara: www.singniagara.com/
Harmony Inc. - Area 5 Member: When you “searched” sing in Niagara, up popped Sing Niagara women's a cappella chorus! We connected! When the women's chorus formed in 1965, there was no Google, no internet, and no cell phones. Imagine landlines, snail mail, and photocopies! A lot has changed since then, but not our dedication to a cappella harmony in Niagara. In our early years, you would hear us singing the pop song Good Vibrations by the Beach Boys, or show tunes such as a Seventy-Six Trombones from The Music Man. Today, we rock the stage with Meghan Trainor's All About That Bass, while still entertaining our audiences with timeless favourites like John Lennon's Imagine or Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen. There is no doubt that if you are considering joining a progressive, a cappella choral group, we fit the bill. Whatever the song, the era, or the genre, you can be sure we sing every song with the same passion. It is true that “ordinary woman can and do make extraordinary music.”
