Who we are and what we do

The Montreal, Shira Choir is an inclusive group of singers, living with disabilities, dedicated to celebrating the power of music, to bring joy, to inspire and unite people of all ages and abilities. People with disabilities are often marginalized in society, without opportunities, to express their talents, passions in life, and realize their full potential.
