​Chatham’s 3 Tenors return to Knox Presbyterian Church, Kincardine

Following a much-appreciated concert last year, Knox Presbyterian Church in Kincardine is welcoming back "Chatham’s 3 Tenors" who will be performing Saturday, April 26, at 7 p.m., at the church.

Andrew Derynck, Colin Bell and Xander Bechard trace their musical roots back deep into their high school years in Chatham, but these days, the trio’s musical endeavours take them not only around southwestern Ontario but right across Canada.

Derynck’s “creamy and luscious voice” has been heard as he premiered a number of roles in new operas Canada-wide. When not singing, he can be found working on his family farm. When asked what he does for work, he often responds with, “I scream pretty and I play in the dirt.”

Bell studied music at the University of British Columbia and has performed on a concert tour in Germany and the Czech Republic.

Bechard studied music at Wilfrid Laurier University and while encouraging new talent as a private voice instructor, has performed in many musicals across southwestern Ontario.

The trio’s passion for music and rich vocal harmonies are supported and enhanced by the skills of their equally-talented pianist, Devon Hansen.

The group’s music covers a wide range of classical and contemporary songs, including “You Raise Me Up,” “The Prayer,” “30,000 Feet” and “E lucevan le stelle.”

Tickets are $25 each; available at Knox Church (345 Durham Street, Kincardine), weekdays from 9 a.m. to Noon or call 519-396-2311; at The Loop in downtown Kincardine, or at the door.

As part of Knox Church’s ongoing commitment to community service, throughout 2025, the church will provide supporting donations to much-needed local and county-wide organizations, such as the Kincardine Food Bank, Big Brothers and Big Sisters, Women’s House Serving Bruce and Grey, and the United Way Back Pack Program.
