Holst Abroad as I was walking, one evening in the spring, I heard a maid in Bedlam so sweetly for to sing; Her chains she rattled with her hands, And thus replied she: "I love my love because I know my love loves me! O cruel were his parents who sent my love to sea, And cruel was the ship that bore my love from me; Yet I love his parents since they're his although They've ruined me: I love my love because I know my love loves me!

Sin dalla sua fondazione, il coro è diretto dal Maestro Ciro Caravano, noto al pubblico come uno dei cantanti, ma anche produttore, arrangiatore e direttore del gruppo Vocale Neri per Caso nonché direttore Musicale del cantante Mario Biondi. Il gruppo esegue brani celebri di Musica leggera italiana ed internazionale, appositamente rivisti e riarrangiati dallo stesso direttore, in chiave “a cappella” in modo da esaltarne l’originalità dei motivi e la ricchezza dell’armonia attraverso nuove chiavi di lettura e un pizzico di ironia, che è poi uno dei tratti distintivi di questa esuberante formazione Musicale. Il CoroPop è composto ...    less
