Beethoven's 9th "Ode to Joy" at Climate Strike in Waterloo

If you are planning to attend the Climate Strike at Waterloo Town Square on Friday Sept 27 and would like to add your voice to a rousing chorus of Beethoven’s 9th symphony with other area choristers and members of the KW Symphony you are all more than welcome!  There will be a short run-through at First United Church (King and William Streets) beginning at 11.30.  By 11.45 we will move over to Waterloo Square to be ready to sing at 12 noon.  Members of our college choirs, Grand Philharmonic, Menno Singers, Waterloo Region Teacher’s Choir will be participating.  You don’t need to attend the rehearsal to participate.

A road map of how this is going to work can be viewed here (especially if you can’t be at the 11.30 run-through):
