This work reflects some of the history of Manchester as seen through the eyes of local poet Audrey Vaughan, including its origins around the river Irwell, the original monastery which became Manchester Cathedral, the industrial revolution, the Peterloo Massacre, and the singing of church and cathedral choirs up to the present day. Music composed by David Warin Solomons Conductor: Zoltán Pad Tenor soloist: József Gál Treble soloist: Csongor Gyulai Organist: Zsolt Mészáros Pianist: Dániel Dinyés The boys' choir's conductor was Márton Tóth who taught the piece to the children.

Herter, with assistance from Ryszard Gieros and Alfred Stefankiewicz. Almost from the very beginning, it has been afliated with St. John’s Archcathedral in Warsaw, initially as a boys’ choir.

From its very beginning in October 16, 1956 and until now, it is made up exclusively of male students and graduates of National Research Nuclear University MEPhI (former Moscow Engineering Physics Institute). The choir’s directors have traditionally been exclusively women — talented choirmasters who represented the classical Russian choral school. The repertoire of the MEPhI Male Choir includes practically all genres of choral music: Russian and Western classics and spiritual music, opera choruses, works by modern composers, Russian folksongs, and some popular songs of the Soviet era.  less

Faraway centuries, on the shores of Estonia there once began a song. In the language of mothers, the spirit of fathers it was carried across to us. In sonorous language, in the spirit of a million it lives on. This song began in a dusky time and was born from the work of voiceless ones. This song was born in a lowly house and it rose as an oath in the night. . A powerless clan began listening, the song was good for the soul, for it spoke a heavenly story, that freedom must come to them. And the powerless clan awoke, and felt the heads on their shoulders. This song will not die, nor this story, this song for us is good. I stepped out to start my voice, ringing on the rocky hillside, lifting up the celebration, cheering up the ring of friends. I know my friend...    less
