Nova Scotia Mass Choir
The Nova Scotia Mass Choir, founded in 1992, is a choral ensemble based in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
The Nova Scotia Mass Choir is a two-time ECMA Award winning 35-member, multicultural gospel choir based in Halifax. Through both its music and its very composition, the choir actively spreads its message of racial harmony. The choir has performed locally, nationally and internationally. Through its performances, the choir often reaches audiences that would not normally be exposed to the genre of black gospel music, thereby raising awareness of some of the cultural contributions of African Nova Scotians to the fabric of the province. The choir’s repertoire features compositions by well-known local composers and musical directors as well as choir members themselves. Several times a year, the Mass Choir gives benefit concerts in support of racial harmony and to assist various charitable causes.
