The Bytown Voices is a non-audition community choir made up of about 50 enthusiastic singers from across the Ottawa region. In 1999 when the Glebe Singers became a women's choir, several of the members approached Ann McNamee, their accompanist, to form a new choir, which became the Bytown Voices. Since 2004, when Ann emigrated to Jamaica, the choir has been directed by Robert Jones. Our accompanist is Brenda Beckingham. We perform two concerts a year, with additional outreach performances at seniors' residences and long-term care facilities.
