Dress Code

The ACO Dress Code has been established over the years to ensure that our choir members are dressed in line with the customs adopted by the churches and cathedrals that we visit in the course of our travels in Europe and the U.K. In some cases, these norms may be rather more formal than we are used to in our churches here in Canada, but they must be observed by ACO members.

About the ACO

The Anglican Chorale of Ottawa (ACO) is an unusual Canadian Church choir in that we have no church building to call our own, and we have actually sung more services in the UK than in Canada. There are about 30 members of the choir, ranging in age from 18 to 80.  Every other year we travel overseas for two weeks.  When we are not travelling, the choir rehearses infrequently in Ottawa, and sings approximately three evening services a year at various parishes in the Ottawa region, some of which would not otherwise be able to celebrate Choral Evensong.
