Island To Island
A musical celebration of friendship between Ireland & Newfoundland
"Island to Island" is the musical theme as well as the motto for the 2012 Performance Tour of the St. John's Choir from St. John's (SJC), Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. SJC is a true adult community choir whose members represent a broad section of St. John's and its surrounding communities. The singers range in age from early twenties to seniors and are from all walks of life. Founded over 25 years ago, the St. John's Choir is now being lead by Ms. Maria Conkey. SJC sings in four part harmony and has a large and varied repertoire of songs ranging from Broadway show tunes to Classical pieces, gospel to Newfoundland folk songs; spirituals to popular music. The love of singing and a desire to bring music to the community at home and now to audiences across Ireland are the threads that hold the choir together.
