About Our Choir
The Toronto Choral Society (TCS) was founded in 1845, to foster a positive musical environment that enables members to learn and develop both musical ability and choral repertoire. The TCS aims to be an integral part of the community of Toronto, presenting important works from the traditional choral repertoire, and exploring the music of the many cultures that make up our community.
Our History
The Toronto Choral Society was founded in 1845 to foster the development of the musical community in Toronto. Live music was a very popular form of entertainment as the rapidly growing population of new Canadians prospered. The headmaster of Upper Canada College, F. W. Barron, became the choir’s first president, and James P. Clarke, the organist at St. James Cathedral, the first conductor.
