EnChor was formed in the summer of 2007 by its Artistic Director, Diane Loomer C.M. to encourage "senior singers" to continue to use their talents, sharpen their brains and keep them off the streets on Friday mornings. Her invitation to singer-friends "over 55" recruited a group of 20 willing and experienced musicians with an average age of 65.

The original brave band of 20 has swelled, via "friendly" auditions, to our current 40 singers. For performances we were fortunate to start at the top, joining Chor Leoni, Elektra, the UBC Opera singers and the VSO, for their annual round of traditional Christmas concerts. We were a hit on the retirement home circuit this past Christmas, where we sang to audiences even older than us. Our plans call for concerts this spring with the VSO, ArtsWay and a possible "gig" on our own in the fall.
