CHC, as often called by parishioners was the official choral group of the Ugnayan St. Joseph the Worker from the Mother of the Redeemer Parish in Deparo Caloocan City. In 2002, Mr. Victor Ventus became the new leader of the group; and under his supervision the Choir was considered one of the finest in the Parish. CHC was composed of mixed voices back then; but like any other group, members do come and go. In 2005, most its female members left to study and work. 2006 came and CHC was officially announced and named after its patron saint as Koro de San Jose, the first and only All-Male Choir in the Parishes’ history. In 2007, Mark Westvent Abesia started assisting Victor Ventus in teaching the members vocal parts and harmony. Koro de San Jose was able to perform for the Bishop of the Diocese of Novaliches, Schools ...    less

It was born thanks to its director, Ludovico (Dodo) Versino, who instilled the love for choral music in high school students all across Rome, which led them all to become friends. It doesn’t have an exact date of birth, because it began as a way to get together, rather than as a formal Choir. They don’t have a uniform, a fixed meeting place, or a specific repertoire genre. Only one thing is certain: they tell their story through their singing, so come listen the coro che non c’è  less

In mid-April, 2011, Ola spent 3 days on the Central Washington University Campus for a project in which he joined the Choir in recording 3 of his compositions. On this video, Gjeilo adds an improvised accompaniment (in a one-take rendition) to his composition "Northern Lights"-- which is published as an unaccompanied piece. Because of his view that improvising is a wonderful snapshot of artists "at that moment", the project was entitled "In the Moment". The other composition to which he created an improvised accompaniment was "Ubi Caritas". He also accompanied the Choir on "The Ground", which includes CWU's resident faculty quartet -- the Kairos String Quartet. Here are the other "In the Moment" YouTube URL's: The project's trailer/preview video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrvEgQl57b0 Ubi Caritas http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_7mcGqsKP8 The Ground: http://www.yo...    less
