DaCapo
is a community chamber choir formed in the fall of 1998 by its
current director Leonard Enns, and which selects its repertoire mainly
from unaccompanied music of the 20th Century and beyond.
The
performance season consists of three annual concerts in Kitchener-Waterloo,
one in fall around Remembrance Day, a mid-winter and a spring
concert. Additionally, the choir performs on an ad hoc basis at
other events. |
In
1999 the UW Gazette described DaCapo as "the top among local
choirs," stating that "If you want a choir that can
convince you of the value of 20th-century choral writing, look no
further."
Two years later, the KW Record wrote: "Clearly,
the Da Capo singers are an ensemble to track. The pure, melded
sonorities they produce are right up there with the best of
contemporary Canadian choirs."
