Burlington Welsh Ladies Chorus

Entertainment, Education and Appreciation of Choral Singing

The Burlington Welsh Ladies Chorus (BWLC) is a welcoming group of women
who are passionate about bringing the community together through music and song. We foster creativity, stimulate culture
and encourage social cohesion by inviting all women of the community in learning songs and singing in different languages
without songbooks – as is Welsh Tradition – to entertain the public.

The BWLC sings a repertoire ranging from pop music, show tunes, opera choruses, spirituals and, of course, a few Welsh and Welsh inspired songs under the direction of Janice Beninger, with accompaniment by Christopher Hunt.

Do you love to sing?

We always welcome new members! Our chorus meets on Tuesday evenings from 7:30 to 9:30 at St. Matthew on-the-Plains, 126 Plains Road E, Burlington ON L7T 2C3.

Although our group is inspired by traditional Welsh music and songs, most of the songs that we sing are in English. It is not a requirement to be Welsh to join our chorus.

Here’s what people have been saying about the Burlington Welsh Ladies Chorus:

The chorus fosters friendships, builds community and keeps the spirits high during difficult times. You learn how a song can get better and better, then better still and being in the group builds confidence and stage presence.

I like the social aspect of the choir and the music selection.

I love being a member of a great group of ladies, learning new songs and having the opportunity of performing in concerts.

I had a fabulous time listening to the Burlington Welsh Ladies Chorus. These ladies sounded like angels when they sang. I got goose bumps a few times as well ... The church was a perfect setting for this show.

I really enjoy the chorus. The sound and voice blending is excellent. All the ladies are warm and friendly too.

I love the challenge of learning music in multiple languages and testing my memory for performing off-book.

I like the joy of singing in a choir and the friendship of the choir.
