It is composed and directed by youths who though come from various sectors in Society share the same passion….love for music. They venture into old and contemporary music, going through each piece in bits and pieces, in its history, in its interpretation, in its message! Their dedication and constant development, thanks to their musical direct or Marouska Attard, has helped them establish as one of the most renowned choirs in Malta. In fact, on ‘The Guardian’ of November 16th, 2010, one of their major productions was listed with the top ten events in Europe, alongside internationally renowned producers and productions. Schola Cantorum Jubilate specialises in the sacred polyphony though on looking at its curriculum vitæ, one finds the choir’s participation in various concerts, operas and tours concerned with secular music. Its repertoire includes pieces by great composers like Palestrina, Victoria, Purcell, Bach, Mozart and also contemporary ones like Per...    less

We considered ourselves to be in a sort of nomansland sociologically, each for different reasons, but the Vosges valleys provided the most beautiful "nomansland" imaginable for our discussions. This song is the slightly mystical, and somewhat understated, memory of those days: Here in nomansland where all had fled the weather we waited patiently and enjoyed God's sun together Here in nomansland a grandson of Adam residing in his earthly grandfather's home the woods and sun presiding Here in nomansland Hermes' and Aphrodite's son sings cuckoo to the ill-shorn mountain top and then is gone Here in nomansland we sing to the other's consolation whilst peaceful dog and cows look on at our natural perchance divine oration  less
