What our members say about being in a choir
Sing With Us
Among our members are lifelong singers, some play an instrument (or a few), some played in high school bands, some teach music, and yes, some of our singers have joined a choir for the very first time.
You can join at the beginning of September or January when we start rehearsals for the next concert.
Love to sing?
Monday evenings free? Willing to learn and have time to practice? If “yes”, “absolutely” and “for sure” are among your answers, then please join us.
“To be part of the Royal Academy choir was incredibly fulfilling. Just the noise you make, and the camaraderie…it is the most life-affirming experience.”
Anyone can sing!
Think you can’t sing? Even very young children can sing. With no special training, they open their little mouths and out comes a sound, often quite beautiful. You can sing, too!
To some, it comes easily. For others, it takes some training, guidance, and support. We offer all of that. Practice recordings for use at home are posted online on our members’ website. There’s a separate recording with each part prominent, helpful whether you read music or not.
Auditions
We are a no-audition choir but our Artistic Director will ask you to sing a few notes behind the scenes to help place you in the correct section.
Fees
Students can join for free with our Student Scholarship Program and earn volunteer hours.
Adults pay $100 for each of the fall and spring seasons. You can pay $200 in September, or pay at the beginning of each season. Because we are a registered charity, your fees are tax deductible.
Where and When
- Acton Town Hall, 11 Willow Street North, Acton Ontario
- We rehearse 7:30 – 9:30 Monday evenings

Top 10 Reasons Why You Should Sing in a Choir
The North Halton Community Singers are looking for eager new singers!
Forget about whether or not you think you can sing, here are some great reasons to do it anyway!!
How Singing Together Changes The Brain
Tania de Jong AM makes the case that people singing together can change the brain. Pushing the idea that creativity is the strategic tool of the 21st century, she says how our voices have been silenced and that it’s not doing us any good. She explains how singing is a survival mechanism, how it makes our hearts beat together and can help heal strokes and depression.
