Bridge of Song: Revalia & Chor Leoni November 21, 2009

Chor Leoni is proud to present the esteemed Estonian choir, the Revalia Male Chamber Choir, in concert on Saturday, November 21 (7:30 pm) at Shaughnessy Heights United Church. Revalia was formed in the autumn of 1998 by Hirvo Surva, a long-term conductor of the Revalia Boys' Choir. The majority of the members of the Revalia Male Chamber Choir are former members of different boys' choirs from all over Estonia. The choir has 30 members with the average age of 25 years.

In the relatively short time they have been together, Revalia has become a perennial winner at festivals and competitions, so much so that in 2003 they were named the Estonian Male Choir of the Year.

Vancouver’s Chor Leoni will open the concert with a short set before handing the programme over to our guests. The evening will close with the choirs raising their voices in a true bridge of song.
