We’re thrilled and honoured to share that Where Waters Meet has been nominated for Classical Album of the Year (Large Ensemble) at the 2026 JUNO Awards — exactly a decade after our first JUNO nomination for Sacred Reflections of Canada.

This recognition is deeply meaningful to our organization and to our extraordinary collaborator and co-performer Sherryl Sewepagaham, whose works in the Cree language — “Morning Drum Song”, “Kitôhpintin”, “Kitaskinahk”, “Nitohtamok Askîy”, “Heart of the Water”, and “Nipîy” — appear alongside compositions by Hussein Janmohamed (“Sun on Water”) and Carmen Braden (“Where Waters Meet”).

We wish to express our sincere gratitude to our extended family of singers; to our artistic, production, and administrative teams; and to supporters and funders from coast to coast to coast who helped bring this project to life. We’re so grateful to see this music recognized on the national stage, and thankful to CARAS and the JUNO Awards jurors for honouring us in this category alongside so many respected ensembles, artists, and peers.
