The Choir is an integral part of the Sunday worship service. The soulful reckoning that they are singing for their Lord and Saviour is what drives the Choir in spite of the hectic schedules of its members. The Choir has a good mix of youth and experienced members ranging from an age of 14 years and above. Yeah, we don’t have an age limit! The East Parade Malayalam Choir is recognized as one of the best church Choirs in the Garden city and has been invited to perform in various concerts organised by other churches, institutions and groups. We thank God Almighty for His abundant grace, blessings and guidance all through these years of our existence. Music Over the years, apart from the traditional Hymns and Gospels, the East Parade Chorale has demonstrated robust efficiency in adapting to a repertoire consisting of We...    less

We did it so, that the 21st of September, we could join our Voices to all those thousand of Choirs and choral singers that are singing for the peace within the OneDayOneChoir initiative. El pasado junio, en el Festival de fin de curso de los Coros Escolares de Voces Blancas del Nalón, preparamos y cantamos nuestra interpretación de la pieza The New One Day One Choir Song. De esta manera, sumamos nuestras voces a las de miles de coros y coralistas del mundo que cantan el día 21 de septiembre por la paz mundial.

This particular setting was composed with a small mixed-ability Choir in mind, so the Voices are mainly in two parts (men's and women's Voices), splitting to four parts (SATB) occasionally, where the words suggest it. The musical style is reminiscent of the 19th century although the piano part does go into 20th century style syncopation at times.

The words are my own and tell of children playing their games in the dusty streets (ie of Bethlehem) unaware that a miracle has happened and asking them to look up to the angels and join their singing. The performance here is by the Composer's Choir conducted by Daniel Shaw.
