Great Plains Voices

Rooted in the Prairie.

Growing through Song.

A welcoming community choir program uniting diverse voices to share stories, build friendships, and perform inspiring music across southwestern Manitoba.

A close-up, photographic realism shot of a conductor’s wooden baton resting diagonally across a bound choral score on a dark slate-grey surface. The baton is slender, with a smooth, ivory-colored shaft and a warm rosewood handle polished to a soft sheen. The open score shows a rich choral texture with multiple staves, clear rehearsal markings, and tempo indications. Overhead, cool, diffused studio lighting creates subtle highlights along the baton and a faint shadow underneath, giving a clean, professional mood. The composition uses shallow depth of field, with the baton and central measures of music in sharp focus and the page edges falling softly out of focus.


We are deeply honoured to share these words from Dr. Elizabeth Grant, whose lifelong dedication to choral music has inspired generations of singers.

“For many years, my hope has been to create opportunities where singers of all ages could experience the joy of music, the beauty of choral singing, and the lasting friendships that grow through shared musical experiences. It brings me great happiness to know that Great Plains Voices will provide a welcoming place where singers can grow musically, build meaningful connections, and strive for artistic excellence.“

“Choral music has the power to inspire, connect, and enrich lives for generations. I am delighted to see this commitment to high-quality choral education and performance, and I extend my warmest wishes to the directors, choristers, families, volunteers, and supporters as they embark on this exciting musical journey together.”

Dr. Elizabeth Grant

Dr. Elizabeth Grant has inspired and mentored many of our Great Plains Voices community including two of our conductors, Marla Fontaine & Deanna Ginn.

Coming Events

A detailed close-up of a sheet of choral music titled “Manitoba Skies,” printed on slightly textured, off-white paper, pages gently curved as if recently turned. The staff lines and notes are sharply in focus, with subtle pencil markings and dynamic indications in the margins. The music rests on a dark walnut music stand with a satin finish. Warm, directional light from a nearby lamp creates a soft glow and delicate shadows in the paper’s texture. The background falls into creamy bokeh, hinting at a rehearsal space. Photographic realism with a tight, centered composition that feels focused, studious, and professional.
