Bill Cliff, David Pickett and Peter Wall, had never met but all had pro fessional voice training, shared a desire to become Anglican priests. Cliff studied music in high school and at the University of Western Ontario. Pickett studied piano, violin and voice, sang in church choirs and com peted in music festivals. His career is divided between the priesthood and choirs. Wall holds a degree in voice per formance from the University of Toronto, and is a frequent soloist and has performed with the Canadian Opera Company among several other choirs and orchestras. They eventually became acquaint ed, discovered their mutual interest in music and started singing together for fun. In 1977, they came to the atten tion of other Anglicans who were planning a concert to raise money for charity. The Three Cantors have per formed at more than 30 churches across Ontario. All three are bari tones, and their repertoire includes Broadway, contemporary and sacred music. They sing to raise funds for the Primate's World Relief and Development Fund (PWRDF), a fund that has been in existence for more than 30 years and has raised and administered over $7.5 million for emergency and relief work across Canada and abroad. The Three Cantors have raised more than $100,000 from their con certs and sales of two CDs.
