In Remembrance
The Cantabile Singers of Kamloops are presenting their 10th annual Remembrance Day performance, bringing together the community to remember and honour those affected directly and indirectly by war. This year the performance is presented with a shift to being an online experience due to COVID-19. The singers will all be recording themselves in isolation, with the individual videos being compiled together into a virtual choir performance. The resulting video will be available on the choir's YouTube channel (http://bit.ly/cantabile-youtube) starting at 7:00 pm on Wednesday, November 11.
Because a virtual choir project is a highly labour-intensive undertaking, this year's Remembrance Day performance will be much shorter than normal with a program of only four songs, including the world premiere of local composer Ryan Noakes' choral setting of the famous WWI poem In Flanders Fields. The Singers will be performing a moving selection of choral music, progressing from expressing a feeling of grief and loss to a sense of hope for the future – fitting for both Remembrance Day and our current situation.
