AXIOS Men’s Ensemble: JUNO Celebration & Tour Launch

The public is invited to a special evening for Axios Men’s Ensemble and the Tenors & Basses of Pro Coro Canada. Following their recent JUNO Award win for Classical Album of the Year (Large Ensemble), over 40 male voices will come together to celebrate this prestigious milestone, and to launch their next project. “A Night to Celebrate — From a National Stage to What Comes Next” takes place 7-10pm on May 21, 2026 at the Ukrainian Youth Unity Complex in Edmonton (9615-153 Avenue).
The JUNO is a rare and significant achievement for a community-based choir—made possible by the dedication of its members, supporters, and community. This special evening also marks the official launch of a national tour of Benedict Sheehan’s Ukrainian War Requiem, a powerful and deeply moving work reflecting on loss, resilience, and hope. Funds raised at the event will help to bring this award-winning music to audiences across Canada.
This warm and celebratory evening with the Axios community will include highlights from their JUNO-winning journey, a special excerpt performance by Axios Men’s Ensemble and the Tenors & Basses of Pro Coro Canada, a silent auction and interactive fundraising activities, and a cocktail-style reception with food and bar service.
