Burman University Singers

The Burman University Singers are now in our 49th year of music ministry!

Founded in 1977 by Dr. Wendolin Pazitka-Munroe, the main choir along with the smaller chamber choir have gone by several different names over the years, including CUC Singers and Choral Union. But even as the names have changed, the goal has remained the same: to carry the message of God's love in song to the campus community, across Canada and North America and beyond. This is best captured in the choir's guiding Scripture verse, taken from Romans 15:6, "That you may with one mind and one voice glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ."

Annual Black Tie Dinner & Silent Auction

On February 14th, our sold-out audience was treated to a delicious dinner and musical performance by the Singers inspired by this year's tour to the Maritimes. In addition to the performance, a number of guests went home with items they won at the silent auction, from themed gift baskets put together by each section of the choir, to specialty items provided by local businesses. It was a wonderful experience, and we look forward to enjoying it again next year!

Spring Tour 2026

This year, the BU Singers are proud to represent the university and share the Gospel in song in parts of Ontario, Quebec, and Atlantic Canada. We are looking forward to a great opportunity to perform, visit new places, and make memories together.

Every year the choir's tours are made possible by the generosity of our friends and supporters. Consider a tax-deductible gift to the Burman University Singers to help with this and future trips as we make a joyful noise to the Lord.
