enJOY!

In December of 2016, two harmony Queens and two music teachers came together to find that they enJOY!ed making wonderful music. Since then there has been a lot of singing, competing, and laughter! Placing 5th at Harmony, Inc.’s International contest was certainly a highlight, but every hour spent sharing the love of harmony keeps this ensemble smiling. Lyric mezzo-soprano, Jenn, takes the reins as quartet lead, with Harmony Queen Jane on bass. Fellow Queen, Judy, soars on tenor, while Singing Judge, Sue, completes the sound as baritone.

Message from enJOY!: "We are proud to be the highest scoring quartet at Area 1 Convention, 2022 and so excited to be entertaining our audiences once again.  It feels like forever since we have performed on a stage."

Tonic!

Marion (Lead), Adele (Bass), Cathy (Baritone) and Mickey (Tenor) love singing a wide variety of song styles together in close four-part harmony. Over the past decade, Tonic! has enjoyed performing for many audiences throughout Atlantic Canada, as well as competing both regionally and internationally.

Tonic! has also proudly represented Harmony Inc.’s Area 1 region as Quartet Champions from 2015 through 2019. At the 2018 International Convention and Contest in Orlando, FL, Tonic! received fifth place medals as well as the “Image of Harmony Award” for service within the organization and the wider community. Tonic is thrilled to have the opportunity to perform for live audiences once again, and can't wait to entertain you!

Lady Lyrix

Lady Lyrix

Lady Lyrix formed in late 2019, and after Covid lock downs, we finally were able to sing together regularly and build a repertoire. Our lead, Michelle, and our tenor, Elizabeth, are sisters and regularly bring that sisterly love to rehearsals. Michelle is a beautiful story teller, and Elizabeth adds such sparkle to our sound. Our bass, Tanya, is a true performer and a “lead with a bass voice”. Our baritone, Heather, is a musical genius and has been known to rewrite parts to better fit our range, or do up personal learning tracks for our songs.

We really are great friends first, and quartet-mates second - we learned that rehearsals require built in “catch up” time.

AC&C 2024 we competed for the first time and were over the moon happy to receive the ‘New Voices’ award for highest scoring novice quartet. In addition, we also placed 4th out of 10 competing quartets. Wow!

We can’t wait to sing for you.
