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

Kirby Shaw 3. 2.57 Halleluja - Ron Williams arr. Carol Cymbala Adansonia Biocentric Vocal Project è un progetto legato alla vocalità femminile, una scelta legata ad un suono ed un timbro specifico che abbraccia le frequenze alte dell’udibile, è un punto di vista, come nello specifico di ogni progetto artistico; La scelta del nome Adansonia, (altro nome del Baobab) è legato ad un semplice concetto di crescita, come il seme in sé contiene tutto ciò che gli serve per diventare un magnifico albero, così, in noi stessi già conteniamo tutti gli elementi che ci possono portare a realizzare grandi progetti; Biocentrico perché nel coro esiste un’alleanza di intelligenza e intenzione per un obiettivo comune; Il repertorio incontra sia musica sacra sia musica d’intrattenimento, intendendo sempre sacro il concetto di suono e di canto; Adansonia Vocal Project viene fondato nel 2017 dal direttore Carmelo Massimo Torre; Al pia...    less

We have sung this song in another arrangement many times in concert with Steve Knightley and Show Of Hands. This new version by Kirsten Pagel, is for a female quartet, with rich dark harmonies and a tender, aching feel. We dedicate it to all who have passed through war, both in the past and unfortunately now, in the present. We also sing it for those within our communities that have recently lost a loved one. It has been such a difficult time to be grieving. We sing it for you to remember the best times, the friendship and the comradery and most of all, for the love that you shared together. Our charity for this song, is South Brent and District Caring, a small charity that looks after people in the community, provides crisis relief and comfort. To donate, please visit our fundraising page at: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thelostsound 60% of the proceeds from this song will be donated to charity. Our whole...    less
