Vancouver Island's All Voices Chorus
Rising Tide is a no audition, all-voice, a cappella chorus of approximately 25 members, based in mid-Vancouver Island, British Columbia.Our mission is to have fun while realising the exhilaration of blending four voice parts, ringing in glorious harmony.
Our Playlist features a wide variety of songs from many eras and we especially love popular tunes from the 50’s, 60’s and 70's. We are led by Artistic Director, Mac Dallman, a 50-year veteran of 4-part, a cappella harmony, and Education Director, James Chappell, a highly- accomplished musician and retired professional music teacher.
The Chorus has a close affiliation with Nanaimo’s own Tidesmen A Cappella (male voice) Chorus, and we enjoy members in common. Both Choruses are members of Harmony Nanaimo, the local Chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society, in recognition of the historic origins and style of some of our repertoire.
Rising Tide rehearses most Sunday afternoons from 1:30pm to 4:30pm at St. Philip by-the-Sea, 7197 Lantzville Road, Lantzville, BC.
We welcome members of all gender orientations and identities and prospective members and visitors are always welcome to attend our rehearsals. Please contact Sheila at (425) 233-5767 or by email at scwells1952@gmail.com if you would like to attend.
