Just in Time Choirs Fall 2026 Concert Made in Canada Part 1
Just in Time Choirs
Just in Time Choirs are celebrating Canada’s rich musical history with their Fall 2026 concert “Made in Canada: Part 1”. On November 27 (7pm) & November 28th (2pm), join the Just in Time Choirs at the Sid Williams Theatre for an homage to Canadian artists and songs, from folk to pop and everything in between, as they present “Made in Canada: Part 1”. Featuring beloved favourites from household names and fresh new sounds from up and coming artists, the choirs’ rendition of these special songs will fill their audiences with pride.
The Just in Time Choirs consist of three ensembles: Unplugged (everyone welcome), and the smaller auditioned groups, the Jems (treble) and Vocal Minority (mixed). They will be joined by skilled collaborators: Sean Mooney on piano, Beau Stocker on drums, Steve Wallace on bass, Filipe Andrade on various instruments, and a special guest, indigenous musician, Kirsten Wood. These renowned contemporary choirs are known for their versatility; their repertoire covers a wide spectrum of contemporary musical styles. At this show, you’ll hear songs like the Tragically Hip’s enduring masterpiece, “Ahead by a Century”, the rousing “Good Old Hockey Game” by Stompin’ Tom Connors, a Shania Twain mash-up, and folk classics like “The Log Driver’s Waltz” and “We Rise Again” by the Rankin Family. Fabulous arrangements of gentle classics like Neil Young’s “Harvest Moon” and Joni Mitchell’s “A Case of You” play alongside new works by Sarah Mclachlan and William Prince. A choir highlight is “yôtin”, a mesmerizing ode to the wind by Cree choral composer, Sherryl Sewepagaham. The concert finale brings all three choirs together to sing the anthemic “Rise Up!” by the Parachute Club.
Just in Time’s founder and choral conductor, Wendy Nixon Stothert is excited to celebrate Canadian music and the artists that create it! “Canadian musicians have a created an impressive body of work and it was so hard to choose which songs to include that we’ll be doing Made in Canada Part 2 in the Spring!” she exclaims. “I am thrilled to be able to present a wide variety of songs with the choirs that showcase the creative story-telling and expert artistry of Canadian singers from the past 50+ years.” The delight is infectious and the presentation by each of the three choirs is uplifting and entertaining.
