@ Church of St. Barnabas
Requiems are often heavy, but Duruflé's take is different. It is built entirely on warmth, comfort, and floating melodies. At the heart of the work are ancient Gregorian chants that have been sung for centuries. Duruflé transforms these simple melodies into something that feels both timeless and surprisingly modern. Sung by ORYC choristers, the music creates a soothing, meditative space to unplug for an afternoon.
@ St Joseph's Parish
There is a reason this work has filled concert halls for nearly 300 years. Beyond the famous “Hallelujah” Chorus, Messiah is a masterpiece of musical storytelling, moving effortlessly between moments of quiet wonder and exhilarating choral power. Joined by guest instrumentalists, the ORYC brings fresh energy to this beloved holiday tradition. Come experience the work that continues to inspire audiences, generation after generation.
@ St Joseph's Parish
Join us as we shift the spotlight to highlight the creativity, leadership, and musical talent of ORYC choristers. As performers, conductors, ensemble leaders, and artistic programmers, they shape every aspect of the concert from repertoire selection to final presentation. The result is a uniquely personal afternoon of choral, solo, and small ensemble performances that offer a glimpse into the talent and initiative of the next generation of Ottawa's choral community.
@ St. Joseph's Parish
Experience two extraordinary choral works in a journey from night to dawn. We begin in the shadows with the deep sonorities and spiritual intensity of Rachmaninoff’s All-Night Vigil (Vespers). From there, the music gradually opens into the luminous optimism of Norwegian composer Ola Gjeilo’s Sunrise Mass. Together, these works trace a path from contemplation to renewal, ending in a message of hope and light.
