Welcome to the official website of

Vancouver Outreach Community Soul Gospel Choir

VOC Soul Gospel
Choir

The
VOC Soul Gospel Choir is proud to celebrate our
12th anniversary in 2008.
The choir was founded by music director,
Checo Tohomaso, with the goal of uniting people of
different cultures and beliefs to deliver a message of peace, hope and
healing through their common passion: singing.
We
sing six-part harmony and our 130 members include men and women of all
ages, ethnicities and religions. Delivering a high-energy, positive
vibe, our dynamic choir mixes together the sounds of Soul, Gospel, R&B,
Jazz, Hawaiian, Calypso, and Reggae. Our animated delivery results in an
audience that can’t resist joining in by toe tapping, foot stomping,
jumping, singing, dancing and hand clapping!
We are
honoured to have been asked to perform at community events such as the
CIBC Run for the Cure for 9 consecutive years, and back up distinguished
performers such as Celine Dion at GM Place, Maya Angelou at the
Orpheum as well as being the first Soul Gospel choir to be invited to
accompany the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra at the Orpheum.
Performing in
venues all over the lower mainland for audiences that often number more
than one thousand, the 130-member VOC Soul Gospel Choir has "changed
lives" with its energetic, soulful performances. This community choir
is guaranteed to put a jump in your step, and a smile on your face!
We'll
Activate Your Soul!
We'll try to get it
Straight in 2008!
