OFTEN ACCOMPANIED BY THE OKLAHOMA CITY PHILHARMONIC, CANTERBURY'S GOAL IS TO PRESENT INNOVATIVE, ARTISTIC AND DIVERSE CHORAL MUSIC TO A BROAD AUDIENCE WHILE BUILDING COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS. EVERY OTHER YEAR, THE ADULT CHORUS TRAVELS INTERNATIONALLY AND HAS PERFORMED IN CHINA, FRANCE, AND MOST RECENTLY IRELAND. CANTERBURY HAS A SMALL ENSEMBLE OF 16 ADULT SINGERS, CANTERBURY TO GO, THAT PERFORMS IN THE COMMUNITY FOR PRIVATE EVENTS, CORPORATE EVENTS,PARTIES, ETC.

MORE THAN 100 CYV SINGERS HAVE BEEN INVITED TO TRAVEL TO NORMANDY, FRANCE IN 2020 TO COMMERMORATE THE 75TH ANNIVERSARY OF D-DAY.
MEMBER SERVICES - EACH YEAR, CANTERBURY PROVIDES SERVICES TO ITS MEMBERS. WHEN ADULT SINGERS TAKE A TRIP, CANTERBURY IS MANY TIMES REQUIRED TO PAY THE TRAVEL AGENT DIRECTLY, SO THE CHOIR MEMBERS PAY CANTERBURY TO REIMBURSE THE EXPENSE. WHEN CANTERBURY YOUTH VOICES SINGS AT AN OKC THUNDER BASKETBALL GAME, THE THUNDER REQUIRES THAT THE ORGANIZATION BUY A SET NUMBER OF TICKETS AT A GROUP DISCOUNT. MEMBER FAMILIES CAN PURCHASE THESE TICKETS FROM CANTERBURY TO SUPPORT THE GROUP. ADULT AND YOUTH MEMBERS ARE REQUIRED TO PAY FOR THEIR UNIFORMS. CANTERBURY ORDERS THE UNIFORMS FOR A GROUP DISCOUNT, AND MEMBERS REIMBURSE THIS EXPENSE. CANTERBURY ORDERS PONSETTIAS AS DCOR FOR THE CHRISTMAS CONCERT. CHOIR MEMBERS ARE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE THESE POINSETTIAS TO OFFSET ORGANIZATIONAL EXPENSE.
