NOCCA is excited to support North Okanagan’s incredible young talent with our inaugural North Okanagan Youth Showcase of Excellence (NOYSE) concert.

Thirteen young performing artists from Lake Country to Salmon Arm auditioned in November 2015 to participate in this NOYSE concert, and their levels of talent bode well for an extremely bright future! Two musical theatre dancers, two ballet dancers, two accompanied cellists, a classical guitarist, a self-accompanied vocalist, piano trio, slide piano player and a classical pianist will be introduced at our 2016 NOYSE concert by renowned Canadian pianist Ian Parker, our guest Master of Ceremonies.

Don’t miss this opportunity to hear and see how bright the future is for the performing arts in the North Okanagan!

Imagine 40 voices, 4 different vocal ranges, up to 12 part harmony – all tumbling together in a kaleidoscope of unmatched musical excitement. That’s ELEKTRA WOMEN’S CHOIR.

They burst onto the Vancouver scene in 1987, determined to explore, create and celebrate the repertoire for female voices. They have lived up to their name, “electrifying” audiences with their astonishing depth and richness as they soared into the leadership of international classical women’s choirs. They have truly struck a new chord in women’s choral music. www.elektra.ca.

The evening’s entertainment will start with a performance by talented local young pianist, Jaeden Izik-Dzurko (16) from Salmon Arm. For the final piece of the concert, MacIntyre’s “Ave Maria”, Elektra Women’s Choir will be joined by Armstrong’s 15 voice Ancora Women’s Ensemble (directed by Terry Logan).
