Tempus adest gratiæ
Hoc quod optabamus,
Carmina lætitiæ
Devote reddamus.
The time of grace has come—
This that we have desired,
Verses of joy
Let us devoutly return.

Natura mirante,
Mundus renovatus est
A Christo regnante.
God has become man,
To the wonderMent of Nature,
The world has been renewed
By the reigning Christ.
Ezechielis porta
Clausa pertransitur,
Unde lux est orta
Salus invenitur.

Is passed through,
Whence the light is born,
Salvation is found.

We sing music from the early 1900's through to more modern songs such as Billy Joel, The Rat Pack etc.
The chorus focuses on improving singing techniques and making chords "ring" while at the same time simply having fun. We love it when a 4 part chord is correctly tuned and the chord just locks together and harmonics (or overtones) ring out loud and strong.
We compete every year in local contest as a mean of measuring our progress against similar groups but we just love to perform for the public and so our contest activities are very well balanced with public performance. We also have a great time together as one of our goals is to provide a place where Men can gather and enjoy their interest in singing.
The Harbour Capital Chorus was formed in Wellington on February 4th, 1988 following pioneering work by the “Co-ordinated Chemists” Quartet for several years prior to that. The Harbour Capital Chorus has since ... ink" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="$(this).getParent().getPrevious().style.display='';$(this).getParent().style.display='none';">less

Poem:
Order of the Day
DAWN
The new light softly streams,
Through the lace curtains,
And I try to Mend my dreams
Till Im myself again.
NOON
I look into the sky,
Where cirrus clouds collide,
Laze in the summer light,
While the breeze talks to me.
EVENinG
A time for rose-red thought,
Long shadows casting,
Memories fleeting,
Fading and fraught.
DUSK
Dusk is for grieving,
And for private tears.
Perhaps for believing
Despite what we fear.
