Edmonton Choir Shocks With Juno Win

The Axios choir from Edmonton just shattered records by winning the Juno for Classical Album of the Year — the first time a choir outside Ontario or Quebec has ever taken home this honor, and the first time an a cappella album has ever won. Their powerful recording of Benedict Sheehan’s Ukrainian War Requiem, born from six months of intense rehearsal, stunned them and the music world. This win isn’t just personal triumph — it’s a landmark moment for Canadian music, spotlighting both artistic depth and national diversity. The choir, still in awe, feels a renewed mission to keep the message alive through their music. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
