Stratford Concert Choir is grateful to James MacDougall for generously sponsoring Messiah 2022 in memory of his wife Connie.

Jim and Connie joined the SCC when they moved to Stratford in the early 80s. Not only were the bass and alto sections enriched with their voices, they also contributed much to choir camaraderie. Jim recently remarked, “I want this sponsorship to celebrate the true joy of singing that Connie and I enjoyed with the Stratford Concert Choir. I wish the choir that same joy of singing in the years ahead”.
