Noel Edison is well established as one of the most versatile and charismatic conductors in the world today. As conductor and artistic director of two world-class Canadian ensembles, the large-scale Toronto Mendelssohn Choir and the GRAMMY and Juno-nominated chamber-sized Elora Festival Singers, Edison is widely recognized and appreciated for his skillful, interpretive work with both choir and orchestra. Edison moved from his native Toronto to the scenic village of Elora, where he co-founded the Elora Festival in 1979. A year later, he founded the Elora Festival Singers, the professional choir-in-residence of the young Festival. Since 1984, Edison has served as Artistic Director of the Elora Festival as well as Organist and Choirmaster of one of the few all-professional church choirs in Canada at the Church of St. John the Evangelist in Elora. The Choir of St. John’s also boasts an impressive series of recordings and recently received rave reviews for their latest release of Psalms and Motets for Reflection. In 1988, he established the Elora Festival Orchestra, which still performs each year at The Elora Festival’s prestigious opening night concert. For 35 years, the Elora Festival has attracted capacity crowds to Elora. Located one hour west of Toronto, the village thrives during the four weeks of the Festival. Each year, patrons enjoy a stellar line-up of performances, from large-scale classical works for choir and orchestra to intimate evenings of jazz, cabaret and chamber choral music. In 2002, the University of Guelph conferred upon Edison the Honorary Degree of Doctor of Music and, on January 22, 2009, he was appointed to the Order of Ontario, the province’s highest honour.
