50 Years & Counting!

Listen to Oriana Singers archivist and longest-serving member Mary Talbot as she looks back on our history in this Fall 2019 interview by Andrea Patterson first broadcast on Northumberland 89.7 FM Small Town Radio.

At 15:30 into the recording, hear what our then 21-voice choir sounded like 40 years ago, having fun with “The Animals Improvise Counterpoint” at a joint concert in Belleville with the Eastern Ontario Concert Orchestra.
