Choral music with a queer twist, featuring Deirdre Kellerman of Tone Cluster
Tone Cluster: quite a queer choir has been part of Ottawa's musical and GLBTQ+ communities since 1994, putting together countless concerts and appearances in Ottawa and far beyond. Deirdre Kellerman is the (relatively) new artistic director for the choir, joining last year during a pandemic-restricted virtual season. We talk about choral music, the power of the voice, and where queerness meets choir.
