Year 7- 2000/01
The theory program started in the 7th season. This has enhanced the musical training of choristers and contributed to the choir’s subsequent successes.
This was also the year the Senior and Intermediate Choirs prepared their first CD’s. Although not launched until the eighth season, the experience of perfecting the songs for the taping prepared the choirs well for their tour to Festival 500 in St. John’s, Newfoundland. This was extremely successful from the point of view of forming relationships with other choirs and the seeds were sown here for the joint concert with the Elmer Iseler Singers in 2003.
The OCC took a further step toward maturity this season when a Trillium Grant was obtained for opening up a choir office. Administration of the choir finally moved from Glenda Crawford’s basement to the first choir office on Argus Road.
