Beasts

Presented by Concreamus

Saturday, April 26, 2025 @ 7:30pm – Trinity St. Paul’s United Church

Concreamus will explore the dark, mysterious realms of the animal kingdom with a variety of contemporary choral music including Murray Schafer’s epic “Medieval Bestiary”, where mythical creatures and shadowy beasts come to life in sound. This concert will take you on a dramatic ride through choral works that explore our primal fears and perceptions of creatures lurking in the shadows.

** Content Warning – This concert features several pieces that explore themes of mental health, including references to self-harm and suicide. These works are included on the program to create a space for understanding and reflection on complex and sensitive topics. It is meaningful to honour these important conversations through music.

Concreamus is a 40 voice new music choir dedicated to innovation in the choral arts and the creation and performance of excellent new works by young composers. The group is made up of singers, students, composers, and educators from around the GTA. Concreamus, Latin for “we create together,” encourages a creative dialogue between composers and performers through which both groups can offer their insight and be inspired in new ways. It is committed to creating opportunities for new vocal music to be developed and presented, as well as exploring new sounds and vocal textures through improvisation and collaborative exploration. 
 
To date, the choir has premiered over 30 choral works by emerging composers. Many of their premiere performances can be found on Spotify, Apple Music, and Youtube. Concreamus has collaborated with various musical organisations, including appearing in concert with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, the Green Room Music Collective, Sinfonietta Aionia, at SING! Festival Toronto, and at several concerts as part of the University of Toronto’s Composer Concert series.
 
Concreamus is a project by “Modern Sound Collective”, and is a registered charitable organization. If you would like to support our projects by tax-deductible donation, please email [email protected].
