Not sure of the source, but possibly an arrangement of a song written by the Williams Brothers, a traditional black gospel music group from Jackson, Mississippi formed in 1960. This is a slowed down version with the word 'God' replaced with 'love'.   This concert was the culmination of a six-week project which creates a choir from scratch for one night only. Each winter and summer, Chris Rowbury gathers a random bunch of singers from in and around Ipswich. There are no auditions and all songs are taught and learnt by ear. Usually eight songs are learnt in six two-hour sessions and in the winter are performed at St. Peters by the Waterfront, Ipswich. http://chrisrowbury.com  less

What began as a small group of friends who were passionate about choral Singing is now a well-established enterprise which is becoming a benchmark in Spain and abroad, as endorsed by the stream of prizes and invitations and the public and critical acclaim. The definitive point of this international recognition came in 2009, when the choir took part in the European Grand Prix for Choral Singing in Tours(France) after having triumphed in all the classes in the competition in Guido d’Arezzo (Italy) the previous year. With the common aim of enjoying choral music, and sharing that enjoyment with others, this project includes an adult choir of 40 mixed voices and a children’s choir (‘Los Peques’) with 50 members. The training is notable for its versatility both in repertoire and in use of the singers, which enables the choir to present all kinds of concerts (mixed choir, chamber choir, ladies’ choir, men’s choir) with a wide repe...    less

Since then, we have not only grown in numbers but also in confidence and have showcased our talents at several Concerts and other public performances. We have an eclectic repertoire, Singing a large variety of material, including classical, pop and show songs. The Choir is comprised of all ages, skills, interests & talents. We are open to all adults in the local and wider community. Some of our members are talented singers and musicians, although you don't have to be able to read music to join - some members had never sung outside the shower until they joined.  less

Please excuse the shameless self-promotion, but a piece I wrote about the science of Singing came out in Slate today. I worked very hard to convey a lot—the joy, the science—in the most succinct way possible, and okay, I'm proud of the result!...

YouTube platform only supports 1st order Ambisonics (1OA), which means low spatial resolution of the auditory image. The recording was also posted on the HOAST platform, where you can find the version with the 4th order Ambisonics (4OA); we warmly invite you to check that version as well! https://hoast.iem.at/channel/cxzT43bTN8EJIdgw/ This recording was created at the time when many people got vaccinated for COVID-19, thus the restrictions were loosened enough so the Academic Choir of Gdańsk University of Technology could return to rehearsals. This was after a long break, during which the choir practiced Singing in a remote manner. In order to celebrate the possibility of regular, normal rehearsing, two-day weekend choral workshops were carried out. This was very e...    less
