Hors du commun des corbeaux
Des gens qui font face à la guerre
Là où poussent des charriots
Des gens qui emploient leur salaire
Loin des usines à morceaux
Des vies que l’on tue qu’on enterre
Là où l’on mène en troupeaux
Des camions guidés en enfer
Allons, prenons, nos sœurs, adelphes et frères,
Chantons, dansons, sortons de la misère,
Parlons, brisons les carcans militaires,
Soyons bourdons, des papillons dans l’air !
Ils en ont fait un fardeau
Des outils de nos savoirs-faire
Ils ont bien fait leur profit
Sur notre dos de nos galères
Que les patrons soient maudits
D’avoir blessé nos pères et mères
Que les fascistes aussi
De se prendre pour légionnaires
Allons, prenons, nos sœurs, adelphes et frères,
Chantons, dansons, sortons de la misère
Parlons, brisons les carcans militaires
Soyons bourdons, des papillons dans l’air
Tous leurs drones et leurs chiens-robots
Pilotés par des ames amères
Les IA et tous leurs réseaux
Ciblant les femmes pour leurs partenaires
Terroristes contre super-héros
Leur storytelling est binaire
Que leurs armes retournent aux fourneaux
On voudra jamais de leurs guerres
Allons, prenons, nos sœurs, adelphes et frères,
Chantons, dansons, sortons de la misère
Parlons, brisons les carcans militaires
Soyons bourdons, des papillons dans l’air

Spending some time with our performance of Stuart Beatch's Chosen Family at Choral Canada's Podium in Victoria this past May...
I could sing the first 60 bars of this movement over and over and never get tired of it.
I've never performed something that simulates floatedness and contentedness like this. It takes me right to Thousand Palms outside of Palm Springs.
That oversold audience in what has to be one of the most rewarding spaces I've ever performed in - St. Andrew's Cathedral was nothing like I've ever performed for before. You could hear a pin drop between movements. That space gave back so much more than we gave.
For context, I've sung at Carnegie and St. Andrew's has it beat. The Winspear Centre also has Carnegie beat.
I'm forever thankful and forever grateful we could bring John Barton's text to music, and having him in the audience just meant the world.
I'm really pining to start our @chronosvocalensemble@mstdn.ca 2027 season.

Tldr: im launching a choir, both IRL and *virtual*, plz help, boosts appreciated 🙏
Seeking choir nerds & a pianist 🎹🎶
Hey friends 🩷
Im a big ole music nerd 🤓
I wrote some choir music, and now Im starting the process of putting together a group of humans to perform it
The vision:
In-person group w accompanist, to perform live -- edit: located in/around Santa Cruz, California, USA* ☀️
And also
Pandemic-style online-only group, to record remotely and produce videos for online release -- EDIT: aka "virtual choir" (im such a luddite sometimes lol)
Right now its at the "put out feelers and see who is interested & available for what" stage
If either of the above is something you'd like to participate in, please let me know! Drop a comment and i'll DM you
If not, boosting goes a long way! Either way, thank you so much for reading this far, hope the rest of your day is gentle to you 🩷
Vid is of one of the songs I hope to do, as a taste of what is to come ⬇️

In 2013, the Los Angeles Angel City Chorale performed Toto's Africa a cappella, producing the sound of rain and thundershowers with their hands.
Video of the performance went viral, propelling the choir to global recognition.

Instead of "3 good things," I give you:
"Rose, Bud, Thorn" ⬇️
(Rose = happy thing
Bud = thing I'm looking forward to
Thorn = tough/sad thing)
For today:
🥀 Rose: wrote approx. 60 seconds of my new choir arrangement, this time it's Training Wheels by Madelline the Person (song's total length is about 3:30, this one has been relatively simple so far)
🌹 Bud: signed up to go to the local aquarium with a local community group
🌿 Thorn: didn't get to ride my bike even tho i really really wanted to

I just submitted my first app to the Apple App Store.
If you manage a musical ensemble, I really want to talk to you. I'm looking for five or six more ensembles to help test this full management suite for choirs, orchestras, and bands.
I already have three ensembles on board, but I could really use some diversity! I'm offering a year's worth of Rehearalio as long as you and your group provide feedback and it's literally as easy as shaking your iPad or iPhone to share bugs and feedback with me if I'm not there with you.
This is a full-service management application for your musical ensemble. Small or large, it'll take all of the administrative burden out of your life.
We're even going to manage ticket sales by the end of the year. (US/Canada only for now)
Learn more at https://rehearsalio.app
Message me here or email hello@rehearsalio.app.

Saturday’s concert made local news! A very complimentary article, too. 😊 https://utrecht.nieuws.nl/kunstcultuur/overrompelend-concert-van-domcantorij-voor-vrouwendag

Choir concert yesterday, and today we sang one of the pieces in the morning service which is streamed. Magnificat by Chiara Maria Cozzolani. I had a little solo part, and it went pretty well to my relief.
I think I figured out the linking to a certain timestamp. :)

Choir concert today, exiting because I had a (tiny) solo. Last rehearsal was chaotic, at the concert everyone pulled themselves together. Audience was very enthousiastic according to the choir members who were collecting at the exit (these concerts are free entrance, voluntary contribution).
Thought of a new word in Finnish: kolehdinkerääjäkuorolainen.
Spotted a bird in the sachristy. :D

Last day of coaching Nederlands Kamerkoor on Finnish. Today my job has mostly just been to listen and enjoy myself. :) I’m getting paid to listen to a professional choir sing a great piece of music. No complaints. :)

Just to practise how to share a youtube video from a certain timestamp, hope this works as intended! Thank you everyone who gave advice. :)
Our choir concerts are usually not streamed, unlike the Sunday services. But this was a special occasion celebrating the 650th anniversary of the province of Utrecht. So a composer from the province, Joannes Tollius (ca. 1550- ca. 1620)(aka Jan Tol if we're not being fancy) from Amersfoort, "Osculetur me osculo oris sui" and "Surge, propera amica mea". Later on in the video also Händel's Utrecht Te Deum which for obvious reasons we get perform pretty regularly. :)

If there is a way to share a particular moment in a youtube video, instead of linking to the start of the video, I don't know it. But anyway, at about 1:10:30 here you can hear our choir singing some Gesualdo (a rather mild one mind you) at the service this morning, and have a look at one of the pretty windows in the Dom church. The volunteer who does the video took advantage of the fact that we sang around the baptismal font instead of where we usually stand. (I'm one of the people hidden by the chandelier)

Choir director let us know that the program for our next concert is too long and we wouldn’t sing the Magnificat by Roxanne Panufnik. To be honest I’m a bit relieved -it was I think the hardest piece on the program. A lovely one though.
