Welcome!
Together since 1997, Island Bel Canto Singers is one of Nanaimo’s most respected women’s community choirs. We love to laugh, we share friendships and enjoy each other’s company, and most of all, we love to sing!
Our choral repertoire is diverse, from early classics to contemporary music, world music and musical theatre, all in a variety of languages. We sing both accompanied and a cappella, and mainly in three-part harmony.
We produce a concert at Christmas and in May each year, at which guest musicians from around the Island are regularly featured. We also perform at community events throughout the year, and network with other choirs to enrich and extend the choral tradition in Nanaimo and surrounding area.
We invite you to check out our website to find out what we’re all about. Better yet, come to our concerts to see and hear for yourself!
