Pleasing Note Do Sing: The Bel Canto Chorus (Hoi Cheu 2016)
Channel: H Cheu
Date: 2016-05-30

Made for the 40th anniversary celebration of the Bel Canto Chorus (Sudbury, Ontario), this film uses the principle of choral music itself, blending voices of the choir to express the passion for singing. The title - 'Pleasing Note Do SIng' - alludes to Shakespeare's 'Sonnet 8', in which the poet uses music as a metaphor to convince a lover that a company in sweet harmony is happier than a well-tuned but lonely voice.

Film director, Hoi Cheu; producer, Christine Kraus; music director, Pamela Teed.
