ChoralFest
ChoralFest is a two-week festival in November open to all Manitoba school, community, and church choirs. Our accomplished adjudicators and clinicians work with each group at its own level, no matter their level of experience. Choirs are guaranteed to walk away having learned something new!
MB Sings
Over 300 Manitobans participate annually in MB Sings for a weekend of training and inspiration with skilled conductors. The program attracts singers from ages 10 to 99 from all areas of Manitoba who join together to present a final concert for all to enjoy!
*Formerly Provincial Honour Choirs
Awards & Competitions
MCA recognizes and honours contributions among Manitoba’s choral community. Students and aspiring conductors can apply for one of our scholarships, composers can submit compositions to our annual competition, and members can nominate an individual or choir for an Award of Distinction.
WHO WE ARE
Manitoba Choral Association is dedicated to elevating choral music in Manitoba. At MCA, we’re always in motion, inspiring our members and building community within Manitoba’s choral world. Sincerity and passion drive everything we do. We treat each other like family, provide safe spaces to learn and grow, and work together to expand the horizons of choral singing in Manitoba.
We are grateful for the opportunity to work on lands covered by treaties 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5; the traditional lands of the Anishinaabe, Ininiwak, Anishininiwak, Dakota, and Dene Peoples; and the homeland of the Métis Nation. We acknowledge our responsibility to keep reconciliation and collaboration at the heart of all we do.
