Candesca is so excited to begin working on new music for the Spring!!

But first take a quick look at how much work is put into preparing, picking, and recording rehearsal tracks by our incredible director Alexandra. This is done before we even begin practicing.

Candesca: behind the scenes 🍿🎬

People often ask us: "How often do you practice?”

💁🏽‍♀️We gather once a week, beginning with vocal warm-ups and harmonizing.

🎶 Learning the music is simple enough, but getting in tune with one another takes
time and practice.

And there’s nothing quite like the feeling of singing in harmony with a group of dedicated, beautiful people. 🥰🫶🏽

👇🏽 Comment ‘YES’ below if you’d like us to share vocal tips, warm-ups, and more BTS of our journey!

Meet Maggie:

Maggie has been playing the violin since she was 5 years old. It didn’t sound too great at the time, but she’s definitely improved a little bit since then. She comes from a loud, musical family of 13, so music has always been a major part of her life. Between construction work, teaching violin, playing for and singing with Candesca, weight-lifting, and working towards her Level 10 Violin exam, she lives a sweet and happy life.

Meet Amy:

Amy has always loved to sing and was influenced by her Granny, who had a song for every occasion. In school, her teachers recognized Amy’s affinity for singing, though it wasn’t until her mid-twenties that music found her again as a six-piece R&B cover band in Montreal. Those were the good days… Since moving back to the Okanagan, she has taken her vocals in a whole new direction—opera and classical, genres that Amy has always admired from afar. Joining Candesca touches Amy’s spirit as she gets to explore vocal activation with a group of like-minded, passionate women.

Candesca is an ensemble of women, but we love when Ethan Hatley-Webster joins us! This classic song is The Prayer - you've probably heard it moat often performed by Andrea Bocelli, but we daresay Ethan sounds just as good 😉 this time, he is joined by Nika Louw.
