Corazón brings their talent and commitment for change through the power of music to the Civic.

On Wednesday, June 3rd, Corazón choir will perform and present The Singing Revolution, a documentary about a protest of hope.  Between 1986 and 1991, the people of Estonia protested against their Soviet occupiers in large rallies. Although these protests were fundamentally peaceful, the Estonians used a weapon powerful enough to rattle an empire: song. Patriotic songs, to be precise, which the Soviets had outlawed in Estonia. Thousands upon thousands would assemble to sing in defiance. This documentary unveils the story of a population that stood up against their oppressors with nothing but their voices and their pride.

The celebration of change through song will beget more change with the proceeds of the evening helping fund the Pura Vida Foundation (meaning Pure Life in Spanish), a Registered Charity in Canada, concentrating on some of the most desperate areas of Latin America.  The current goal of the foundation, is to provide marginalized and exploited young girls in Peru with basic necessities such as a dependable supply of food, safe housing, and necessary resources to enhance their quality of life.
