Welcome to the Sweet Soul Choir!

We’ve been bringing lively and uplifting music to Victoria and the Island for 20 years! Led by our talented director, Checo Tohomaso, we perform a unique and high energy music mix of Motown, R&B, Soul, and Gospel. We’re the only local choir that incorporates choreography, adding extra fun to our performances.

Our most recent concert was August 11th, 2024, when we sang for the City of Victoria in its Summer Concert Series, performing in the Cameron Bandshell at Beacon Hill Park. A lively audience of about 400 people attended, clapping, singing, and dancing along with us.

We bring singers of all ages and walks of life together. No audition is necessary. Come join our wonderful community and share the joy!

Our Fall Season is now under way and we’re preparing for a concert in December. We meet in the Selkirk Montessori School, at 2790 Jutland Road, on Tuesday evenings, from 5:30-8:00 pm. Workshops and rehearsals are drop-in. Fees for workshops are $10.00, and rehearsals with Checo are $15.00.

For more details, please contact us at info@sweetsoulchoir.ca.

Meet Our Director, Checo Tohomaso

Our enthusiastic director, Checo Tohomaso, has performed all around the world with notable performers like Marvin Gaye, Lionel Richie, and the Commodores

After his performance at Expo ’86, Checo decided to settle in Vancouver, BC. He now travels back and forth to Victoria to bring that authentic Motown sound to our choir.

We acknowledge with respect the Lekwungen peoples on whose traditional territory we live, work, and play
