Composed of about forty members, our group presents itself either as a women’s choir, or a men’s choir or mixed choir. Our repertoire is varied and original : Renaissance, classical, traditional or more contemporary rhythms such as jazz, afro-latino, or contemporary songs. We celebrated in 2015 the thirtieth birthday of our association which has a long experience in exchange and sharing around choir singing. We have organized several festivals, masterclasses and various exchanges and thus contributed to the promotion of our region, the «département des Alpes-Maritimes» and to the development of choral singing (see examples below). Over the past four years, The Mercantour Choirs (Les Choeurs du Mercantour) have had a particularly rich activity and have participated in important national and internation...    less

As a composer, I tend to lean toward and connect to slow and emotional Pieces. I have always been someone who strives to convey emotional complexity, therefore writing an up-tempo Piece had to be purposeful and meaningful. The inspiration for this score comes from the first time I was able to hear My son's Heartbeat during an ultrasound. It was a magical and exciting moment that I will never forget; however, leading up to that specific moment there was an element of tension. Six months prior to hearing My son's Heartbeat, My wife and I found ourselves in a very different situation with the outcome of an ultrasound. We arrived at the hospital excited to meet our child, only to discover we had silently miscarried. I had never felt so deflated and aimless in one sudden moment. It was as if I was a boat, drifting, with no direction in My life. Fast forward to this ultrasound with our soon-to-be son. You can imagine the excitement and fear we bo...    less

A vibrant and dramatic choir based in the Heart of Johannesburg led by the youth. We are a choir full of love, style and a very positive attitude towards everything we do.

A Piece for women's choir by Canadian composer Jeff Smallman.

Inkosi Jesu is a beautiful Piece composed in reembrace of Christ's suffering, death and resurrection. It takes us through a series of emotions as we remember these historic moments when Christ died for our sins.

Please excuse the shameless self-promotion, but a Piece I wrote about the science of singing came out in Slate today. I worked very hard to convey a lot—the joy, the science—in the most succinct way possible, and okay, I'm proud of the result!...
