A silly a-cappella number based on an idea from an old epigram "Scylla is toothless".
Scylla becomes a vintage headmaster in this version but The results are similar.
My old headmaster hasn`t got one tooth
But he had teeth enough back in my youth
He told me off Then every single day
But now his tongue has worn his teeth away!
Original unattributed epigram:
On an old Scold
Scylla is toothless, yet, when she was young
She had both teeth enough and too much tongue.
What shall we, Then, of toothless Scylla say
But that her tongue has worn her teeth away? less

Since Then, The ACS has established itself as a formidable presence in The Philippine musical landscape. Their unique specialization in sacred choral music has opened a richly eclectic mix of European, American and Asian choral literature that spans medieval to postmodern periods, traditional to contemporary styles, complex art music to highly-textured indigenous music, and moving sprituals to psalmody hewn out of traditional Asian musics.
In 2006, The ACS made Their mark abroad with Awit: The First ACS European Tour, representing The Philippines in two important choral events: The Polyfollia in France, a biennial international choral festival at Saint-Lo in La Manche, and The 38th Tolosa Choral Contest in Spain where They emerged as first prize winners in The polyphon... less

Idris was adamant that There should be a male choir in The Blackwood area and so advertised his intent to The local people. His campaign received a good response and led to a meeting being held by The interested parties with The choir being formed in April of The same year. The design of The Choir's badge has changed a little since Then with pupils from The local Libanus Primary School (where The choir used to rehearse) entering a competition to design The new badge which is still in use today.
The Choir has travelled widely over The years performing and raising lots of money for charitable causes wherever it goes. It has appeared in concerts at internationally recognised venues such as The Grand Hall at Eton College, The Royal Albert Hall (a... less
