In Abgrenzung von Kammer- und Kirchenchor stiftete Der Name „JedweDer Küchenchor“ eine Identität, die es in Der Folge erlaubte, sich quer durch das Repertoire Der Musikliteratur zu singen. Nach den anfänglich ausschließlich musikalischen Chordarbietungen, entdeckte Der Chor immer mehr die Lust zur kreativen Bühnengestaltung und begann dramaturgische Elemente in die musikalische Darbietung einzubauen. Für das Programm „Familie Grinzinger besteigt einen Berg“ 1997, engagierte er erstmals eine Regisseurin (Nika Sommeregger), die den Chor bei Der Inszenierung unterstützte. Mit den letzten größeren Programmen FörDernd Ist Beharrlichkeit, Walisische Planktonmusik, 20 Jahre Sound im Getriebe – ein Fest , Prinzipiell bin ich ja lieber da und Schmeck’s ging Der Chor weiter in...    less

But what makes the sound, and in particular the sound of a professional group, so appealing? In this essay, I look at the science behind the notes to find out why choral music sounds so good. ▶ Support my channel: https://www.patreon.com/lIsteningin ▶ Subscribe: https://bit.ly/2PlVaMS ____________________ ▶ Website: http://www.barnabymartin.com ▶ Twitter: https://twitter.com/BarnabyMartin FURTHER READING Choral Phonetics - when vowels control the intonation [Wolfgang Saus]: https://www.oberton.org/wp-content/uploads/ws-Choral-Phonetics-vh-2.pdf CHOIRS FEATURED IN THIS VIDEO Tenebrae Choir: https://www.tenebrae-choir.com/ Voces8: https://voces8.com/ Illuminare Choir: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnDCENlgvXo The Choir of Westminster Abbey: https://www.westminster-abbey.org/worship-music/music/the-abbey-choir-and-musicians/the-choir The Kingdom Choir: https://ki...    less

Recorded live on March 16, 2015, at First Presbyterian Church in Fort LauDerdale, Florida. Performed by the Radcliffe Choral Society of Harvard University. Director: Beth Willer. The composer writes: "I wanted to make a piece about the creation story but I didn't want to highlight one religion's or culture's narrative over another." "It was important for me to try to find something universal, something present in all stories, or common to all cultures. I hit upon the idea of making a kind of checklIst of everything that needed to be created to get the world to this point, without each individual culture's stories or myths or exoticisms. I went back to the first chapter of Genesis, to see what I could get out of my own culture's story, and I stripped away all the descriptions, adjectives, connectors and motivators. All that is left of Genesis in my text are the nouns, leaving a dispassionate lIst of everything created, in the orDer in ...    less
