Calgary Choral Society
The Calgary Choral Society, also known as Revv52, is a Canadian nonprofit organization and registered charity based in Calgary, Alberta. The organization was originally formed in 1970 as a non-profit entity, building upon a long history of choral performances dating back to the early 1950s[3].
History
The first public performance of the precursor to the Calgary Choral Society took place on May 9, 1953, at the Stampede Corral, where they performed "Merrie England" with the Calgary Symphony Orchestra. This inaugural concert was part of a celebration marking Queen Elizabeth's coronation[3]. Over the years, the organization has evolved, with Revv52 emerging as a prominent ensemble within the society.
Revv52 Ensemble
Revv52 is a unique performance ensemble composed of 52 auditioned vocalists who perform with an in-house live band. This format blends choral music with elements of rock, pop, and orchestral music, creating a distinctive sound that sets it apart from traditional choirs[1][2]. Revv52's performances are often high-energy events that combine music with dance, theatre, and spoken word, making them akin to rock concerts rather than traditional choral presentations[1]. The ensemble has gained international recognition and has performed at prestigious venues such as Carnegie Hall in New York City and the Calgary Stampede Grandstand[2].
Community Engagement and Charity Work
The Calgary Choral Society is committed to using music for social good. Revv52 collaborates with various non-profit organizations to provide free or low-cost entertainment for fundraisers. They have worked with groups like the Benevolent Artist National Charity (BANC) and Rotary International on causes such as supporting Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG) and addiction treatment[1].
Status as a Registered Charity
The Calgary Choral Society holds a charitable registration number and is recognized by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA)[2]. This status allows the organization to provide tax receipts for donations, supporting their mission and community initiatives[2].
