Bonjou!

"Non mwen se Joseph epi mwen se yon manm nan koral All Saints depi dezyèm ane (kounye a mwen nan inivèsite). Koral la te gen yon gwo enpak sou mwen, li te ban mwen yon sans responsablite depi mwen te jèn - epi plis konfyans lè lè a te rive pou mwen aplike pou travay. Koral la pa sèlman ba ou konesans nan mizik men nan lòt matyè tou, pa egzanp, nou chante an laten, grèk ak alman, nou aktyèlman li epi tradui mo yo pou nou ka konprann sa n ap chante a. Nou aprann transfòme mizik n ap chante a an yon bagay ki pi gran. Koral la se lavi mwen, se dezyèm kay mwen. Mwen pa ka tann pou vakans yo retounen touswit."

Bonjou!

Koral la

Koral All Saints yo a modle sou tradisyon koral katedral angle a kote timoun yo chante vwa soprano nan mès, im nasyonal, motè, sòm ak kantik. Koral la chante nan Gran Mès Solanèl Dimanch 10:00 am pandan ane lekòl la, osi byen ke nan sèvis espesyal ak evènman tankou Leson ak Chan Nwèl, Lavèy Nwèl, Semèn Sent ak evènman kominotè yo.

Timoun yo toujou ap plonje nan kèk nan pi bon mizik ki janm ekri, soti nan travay konpozitè Renesans tankou Byrd ak Palestrina, rive nan gwo konpozitè kontinantal yo tankou Mozart ak Brahms, rive nan repètwa katedral modèn angle ak ameriken an. Koral la chante nouvo mizik kòmande pa konpozitè vivan tou.
