Ottawa choir, The Stairwell Carollers, perform "Hark! All Ye Lovely Saints Above”, a Renaissance Madrigal about love. Written by Thomas Weelkes (1576-1623),  an English composer and organist from the Renaissance.

The Stairwell Carollers, an a cappella group, formed in 1977 by director Pierre Massie, has earned the distinction of being ranked amongst the best of Ontario choirs in both the 2010 and 2013 Ontario Music Festival Association competition.
