This Christmas, we’ll all be celebrating differently. Staying safe might mean staying home. We’ll all be reimagining what our holiday celebrations look like, and many of us might not be able to have the Christmas we imagined.

And so, i Coristi wants to help you bring a little extra cheer into your Christmas this year – virtually, of course! Join us on December 19, 2020 at 7:30 MST for the launch party of our holiday concert video, or tune in later, when it best fits into your holiday plans.

Connect to i Coristi's YouTube channel, and join us for an intimate Christmas evening!

Our event sponsors:

In our Meeting Places series, we present a Singing from Home Edition, as we are forced to work with the most unlikely collaborator - SARS-CoV2, which causes COVID-19. In this live streamed event, music is used to demonstrate our exploration of the Jamulus software platform for simultaneous, distanced creation. In addition to the “how to”, the musical selections also explore the emotions evoked by recent public health policies and infection risk. Be sure to stick around for Gordon Lightfoot's Song for a Winter's Night, arranged by Robin Salkeld, as we reflect on our shared longing for connection with our loved-ones who are distanced from us!

Chase winter’s chill away with i Coristi as we share a program of festive winter and seasonal carols, with special guests and an opportunity to join the choir in song over a festive beverage.

Music about animals - program will include Eric Whitacre's Animal Crackers (fun settings of Ogden Nash poetry), Passereau's Il est bel et bon (Renaissance motet with onomatopoeia of chickens clucking), Trent Worthington's arrangement of The Beatles' Blackbird, and others. A light and fun program for spring.

A concert program focusing on texts and lyricists, rather than on the composers. Poets will include E. Pauline Johnson (in a setting by Christine Donkin), Pablo Neruda (set by American composer Shawn Kirchner), Shakespeare (settings by Charles Wood, Bob Chilcott, Ward Swingle), and others.

The concert will include a collaboration between Deepak Paramashivan, a doctoral student in ethnomusicology at the U of A, and i Coristi. Deepak will perform on the sarangi - a small bowed string instrument of India and Nepal, with 3 playing strings and about 36 sympathetically vibrating strings. It's a relatively rare instrument to hear - often when we think of Indian classical music we think of sitar and tabla, but it has a much more voice-like, melodious quality.

Meeting Places 1 is the first in a series of concerts that explore intersections between choral music and other areas in which choirs don't work very often. Future concerts could be collaborations with dancers, live painters, slam poets, jazz groups, Indigenous musicians, pop artists... This concert will be a great first installment of this new initiative.
