Sirens Choral Association announces 2024-25 season

Sirens Choral Association (SCA) is excited to announce the twelfth season of Sirens and the tenth season of Harmonia Youth Choir. With a diverse range of concerts, this season promises to be a memorable journey through the rich tapestry of vocal harmony.

SCA’s Artistic Director, Kelsea McLean, is pleased to announce the upcoming season. She says, “This year, we are especially excited to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Harmonia Youth Choir—a milestone that fills us with pride. As artistic director, my goal is to celebrate the skills and talents of our incredible singers, reigniting excitement for our concerts here on PEI. Our 2024-2025 season embraces a return to our roots and a celebration of simplicity. You can look forward to performances featuring beloved pieces from our album Boundless, along with a fresh rendition of Katerina Gimon’s Elements, which we last performed a few seasons ago. By revisiting these pieces, we highlight the timeless Sirens and Harmonia sound that keeps our audiences coming back for more.”

In an effort to ensure our choral community is accessible to all, Sirens Choral Association is pleased to introduce a “pay what you can” ticket structure for the 2024-2025 season. While tickets for Sirens concerts are typically priced at $25 and Harmonia tickets at $15, audience members can choose the pricing option that works best for them.
