Accolades
For two years in a row, Ensemble Laude was chosen Victoria’s “favourite vocal ensemble” in Monday Magazine’s annual M Awards. Also in 2011, Ensemble Laude was given a legacy award from Arts Sustainability Victoria for its “high level of contribution to the community and to your arts discipline in particular.”
Ensemble Laude is grateful for this supportive confirmation that our music has touched the lives and hearts of people in our community. We're also so appreciative of the constant flow of positive feedback that we receive from our audience members as well as the charities we seek to support.
"Hearing the women sing, I felt their deep connection with the spirit at work in the Rainbow Kitchen, a spirit of giving abundantly from the heart... One felt a host of winged presences in the women’s voices, and a 'cloud of witnesses' with us from ancient times to now. It was as though they were lifting up the voices of forests and clear-running mountain streams, bringing voices from all across the earth and history into this one place and time... I am so grateful to Elizabeth MacIsaac and the women of this rare and gifted choir. They create a place of sanctuary for our aspirations to compassion, and our highest mode of humanity." ~ Barbara Colebrook Peace, poet
