Dear Friends:

On behalf of the choir I would like to ask for your support of our upcoming concert, Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana, which we will perform together with the Harmonia Choir of Ottawa, the Cross Town Youth Chorus, soloists, and two-piano and percussion accompaniment. This masterpiece of the choral repertoire always attracts a large audience in Ottawa. The concert will take place on Sunday, April 29, 3:00 p.m. in St. Thomas the Apostle Church, 2345 Alta Vista Drive.

Throughout our history we have depended on sponsors like yourselves to help defray our expenses, e.g., conductor’s and pianist’s stipends, hall rental, musical scores, printing of programs, and payments to instrumentalists and soloists. We prefer to keep our membership fees and ticket prices low so as not to be a barrier to those with limited resources. 

Sponsorships are acknowledged both in the concert programme  and on our website. The rates are as follows: a donation of $100 or more will acknowledge you as a major sponsor, $50 will give you space for a business card, and $25 will list you as a supporter. Cheques should be made out to the Ottawa Brahms Choir and given to a choir member or mailed to John R. Williams, Treasurer, Ottawa Brahms Choir, 825 Grenon Ave., Unit 19, Ottawa, ON  K2B 6G1.

I thank you for considering this request and hope to see you at the concert. Your support will be greatly appreciated.

Yours sincerely,
