"The Master's Singers" (TMS) was founded in September 2000 by the director, Muriel Wiebe, and a group of 7 men committed to growing a male chorus in Calgary, Alberta. They had no idea how fruitful the next 10 years of ministry would be. The name, The Master's Singers, represents men singing for their Master, the Lord Jesus Christ.
The attendance at their first rehearsal consisted of 12 men, a director and a pianist. For the 2010-2011 season, TMS membership consists of more than 70 members. This is a unique group of men with varied backgrounds. They love to sing, rehearse once a week, and believe that sacred music sung by men is very important in today's society. They also value the building and maintaining of friendships within the chorus.
Most months a Sunday is set aside for the chorus to join with a local church in or around Calgary for morning worship, assisting with that worship by singing a variety of songs. TMS also presents concerts in varied venues throughout Alberta.
The Master's Singers previously appeared at the Epcor Centre's Jack Singer Concert Hall, when it was invited to present a sacred concert for the Alberta 2005 Centennial Celebrations.
In addition to their CD, Grace, which was a 2008 Covenant Award Nominee for "Choir Album of the Year"' TMS is pleased to have recorded its third CD, I Will Sing, released in August 2010 as part of its 10th Anniversary celebrations.
Members of The Master's Singers believe their chorus provides a meaningful ministry in Alberta and are pleased to have the opportunity to sing once again at the Epcor Centre's Jack Singer Concert Hall for their 10th Anniversary Celebration Concert in November 2010.
