Toronto Northern Lights Chorus

Toronto Northern Lights Chorus (TNL), Barbershop Harmony Society,

The 2013 International Champion Chorus has been the proud representative of the Ontario District at the Barbershop Harmony Society International Chorus Competition 11 times since their formation in 1998, bringing home five consecutive silver medals between 2001 and 2005. With 34 men on stage in Kansas City in 2000, they were proud to be recognized as the smallest chorus to ever receive a medal at the International competition, and even more proud to be considered instrumental in shifting the perceptions that a smaller chorus can compete at the highest levels within the singing society.

TNL's expansive repertoire ranges from Barbershop to Broadway, Vocal Jazz to Doo-Wop, and from Gershwin to the Beatles. As a testament to this chorus' versatility, the Toronto Northern Lights was selected as the winner in the Cultural Traditions category of the CBC / Radio-Canada National Radio Competition for Amateur Choirs in 2000.
