We enjoyed the most terrific day of music-making on Saturday, 1st September 2012, culminating in a wonderful performance of 'In the Dark' in Hall One at Kings Place. One of the audience members commented: "That was the most sublimely beautiful concert I can remember ever attending".
Bachtrack gave the concert 5 STARS:
"their voices float, soar, and whisper, while creating both an exquisite intimacy and an expansive grandeur, as the text demands...their scrupulous attention to detail, and immaculate intonation and articulation made this a performance of spine-tingling beauty and conviction."
Thank you to everyone who supported us; the atmosphere was electrifying!

二十世紀美國作曲家巴伯(Samuel Barber, 1910-81)生長於賓夕法尼亞州,畢業於費城寇蒂斯音樂學院,除鋼琴和作曲外,還學習歌唱和指揮。他是傑出的美國新浪漫主義作曲家之一,樂曲中充滿詩情,往往在緊緻與複雜的音樂結構中,展現出乎意外的優美樂句。
〈在這閃亮的夜晚〉原為男中音與鋼琴的獨唱作品,後來改編為混聲四部合唱曲,歌詞取自美國詩人艾吉(James Agee, 1909-55)的詩集《允許我行旅》(Permit Me Voyage, 1934)中的〈描述天堂〉(Description of Elysium)一詩,旋律主題在女高音、男高音及女低音聲部間交織,情感綿延不絕,而男低音則以長音為全曲和聲支柱,樂曲充滿表現力。
Sure on this shining Night
of starmade shadows round,
Kindness must watch for me
This side the ground.
the late year lies down the north.
All is healed, all is health.
High summer holds the earth.
Hearts all whole.
Sure on this shining Night
I weep for wonder
Wandering far alone
of shadows on the stars.
在這星影環繞
閃亮的夜晚,
仁慈必看顧我
在地球的這一端。
北國的歲暮,
萬物皆復甦。
盛夏臨據大地,
我重拾完整的心。
在這閃亮夜晚,
我為奇蹟落淚
獨自漫步
在星影下。 less

That was our answer, unexpected even for us, since we hadn’t thought of a name yet. It happened on a December Night in 2001 in Sopron in front of the Dömötöri Patisserie where we sang Christmas carols for the passersby. We didn’t notice being founded, only the joy of polyphonic singing. It was, and still is our experience that making music together strengthens existing friendships and facilitates the development of new ones.
We started out with 13 people and our numbers have only been growing ever since, we count 25-35 members on average. We gladly sing anything may that be it religious or secular, Hungarian or from abroad regardless of its period or language if it fits our skills and numbers.
We sing in churches, restaurants, museums, the Academy of Music, small villages in Hungary or Austria, at international competitions, libraries – anyplace where we are welcome.
Singing in a choir is a demanding activity; it takes a lot of time, energy, discipline a... less
