Music & Beyond

Curtis Perry Photography did it again - we have fantastic photos from last night's concert by Capella Regalis Choirs!

Arrangements and music by Paul Halley, with choirs led by Nick Halley and Vanessa Halley. Matthew Larkin joined at the organ for the second half!

St. Matthew's Anglican Church in the Glebe, Ottawa is a place where many music professionals were brought up, and we're sure that many in the audience were somehow related to it.
It was our honour to present this concert of the choirs while on tour from Nova Scotia.

Next stop is Kingston!
