We rehearse Monday evenings from 7:30 to 9:30. This is an auditioned group with considerable musical and choral experience, one that aspires to a higher standard of performance. Our members include amateur and professional musicians, choir directors and music educators. Prospective members may audition from time to time as positions come open. Contact the choir if you have an interest in joining.
We perform mostly a cappella pieces, but many of our concerts include accompaniment by members of the Nanaimo Chamber Orchestra and organ. less

Performed by the Vancouver Island Chamber Choir [http://www.facebook.com/VancouverIslandChamberChoir]
The text, by Alexander Forest, is:
A cloud moves through the sky;
A small cloud in the bast sky
Soft and white against the bright blue.
A cloud moves through the sky;
Floats high above.
A single cloud in the sky,
Gently drifting through the air.
A cloud moves through the sky.

PRAIRIE SPRING
Evening and the flat land,
Rich and sombre and always silent;
The miles of fresh-plowed soil,
Heavy and black, full of strength and harshness;
The growing wheat, the growing weeds,
The toiling horses, the tired men;
The long empty roads,
Sullen fires of sunset, fading,
The eternal, unresponsive sky.

Flaming like the wild roses,
Singing like the larks over the plowed fields,
Flashing like a star out of the twilight;
Youth with its insupportable sweetness,
Its fierce necessity, Its shar... less
