Ariose Presents Our 30th Anniversary Concert
You Do Not Walk Alone
For three decades, Ariose has been a beacon of musical excellence and community in Edmonton. Founded by Marilyn Kerley in 1995, and under the leadership of Artistic Director Jolaine Kerley since 2012, the choir has grown into a nationally recognized ensemble known for its diverse repertoire and commitment to Canadian composers. Tonight's concert, You Do Not Walk Alone, reflects Ariose's journey, one that is marked by shared music, enduring friendships, and the collective strength found in song.
