Founded in 1996, the Yangtze River Performing Arts (YRPA), is a non-political and non-profit organization register in Ontario. Most of the members are Chinese immigrants. Our vision is to support and promote both Chinese traditional music and local music and culture; to participate in special events for charity; and to attribute to society through community outreach programs; and provide opportunities for people from local community to exchange musical experiences to enrich their new life in Canada.
The YRPA organizes an annual concert to provide a positive environment for people within their multicultural community to exchange their musical and cultural lifestyles.
For the years, we have actively participated many community events. Some few of the examples:
Performing in Toronto International Dragon Boat Race Festival.
First place Award for Adult Mixed Choir in Peel Music Festival.
Performing in Overseas Chinese Choirs Festival every year.
Performing Chorus in many charity events, and multi-culture concerts, etc.
