Colindale!
Out he walks, six feet tall, twenty two Years, ripped jeans,
but respectable
(it's Saturday after all).
He's no threat he's going to cruise the shops.
Along she walks with her groceries old, frail,
her life hangs behind her like a snail-trail,
dirty but still quite natural.
Her eyes focus, she sees him:
the determined stride and the baseball cap,
the torn pants and his Walkman.
Fearful, frightened, full of disgust and mistrust,
she crosses the street, scowling
like a scornful cat that's just been thrown off a lap.
I felt ashamed, I felt annoyed
What about trust?
I just wouldn't react that way.
But then, as a youth approached me
I had a sudden and crucial thought.
I don't want to be smashed up
and I don't want to lose these things that I've just bought.
So I crossed the street and silently
became a product of this century.

In Oct of 2008 I returned to the Jes church, the place I had grown up with my father running the folk mass choir. He had retired 12 Years previously. What was once a packed out mass full of joy and prayer, families and young couples, singles and religious, was now a quieter mass with no choir and I saddened by this.
I offered my services as a singer and musician to come and provide music for the 5:30 mass and within a few short weeks I returned to the place I consider my spiritual home.
I had not purposely set out to start a choir but people began to approach me with a desire to sing and it was a need within the community I was not going to Ignore.
On the 12th Dec 2008 The Jes Gospel Choir was birthed with 5 singers and me & it was a wonderful experience and we received a very warm welcome. Within a year the choir grew to over 15 members and some musicians.
The wonderful thing about this choir is that it is a choir th... less

Rainier Chorale - Omaggio 2017 - The Bridge Builder

In it, Dromgoole tells the story of an old man who approaches a deep and wide water-filled chasm. He crosses in the evening as he is unafraid, then builds a bridge to span the tide. A fellow pilgrim questions why an old man would build the bridge, as he would surely never pass this way again in his lifetime.
The old man lifts his grey head and responds to the questioning traveler that a youth is to follow after him. He too, would need to cross in the twilight dim. The old man answers, “I am building this bridge for him.”
The commission process was an interesting and fascinating one in which to be involved. Dr. Dickau was originally approached a year or so ago by the chorale, and was inter... less

A song of praise to the Virgin Mary, dating back at least 1000 Years. Today it is often sung at Georgian weddings in honour of the bride.
You are a vineyard
Just blossoming,
Young and good,
Springing up in Eden.
A fragrant poplar,
Growing in Paradise.
May God adorn you,
None is more worthy of praise.
You yourself,
Are the sun brilliantly shining.
