Mandskoret of 1914 are a group of adult, personable men who like to sing, from the experienced to the new singers. Mandskoret av 1914 Mandskoret er en usedvanlig sprek 100 åring, og er Haugesund eldste mannskor. I Mandskoret av 1914 er vi en gjeng med voksne, omgjengelige menn som liker å synge – fra de rutinerte, til helt nye sangere. 
 Mannskor mer enn bare sang Det handler om opplevelser knyttet til deltakelse, måten vi tar vare på hverandre og den spesielle sosiale aktiviteten. Mannskor favner mer om kvaliteten i musikkaktiviteten, enn kanskje den musikalske kvaliteten. Mannskor er også en viktig bærer av solide tradisjoner i vårt samfunn. Korsang er videreføring av tradisjon. Korsang er en verdifull aktivitet som fremmer livskvalitet. Mannskorsangen er en meningsfull aktivitet som gir helsemessige gevinst. Korsang er helsefremende, og livskvaliteten forbedres som følge av følelsesmessig invo...    less

It is supported by a smaller, auditioning Fulham Camerata Ensemble which is made up of professional and semi-professional singers, allowing the main Camerata to tackle exciting repertoire and maintain high musical standards while fostering the careers of young professionals. The Choir also offers choral scholarships to promising young soloists which provides vocal support for the amateur Choir, and fosters career development for the scholars. The amateur and ensemble groups come together for at least three main concerts a year with additional Christmas concerts, sometimes with orchestra. The amateur Choir rehearses on Tuesday evenings from 7.30 – 9.30pm  less

Sa Nuit d’Été他的夏夜 萊納．瑪利亞．里爾克(Rainer Maria Rilke，1875－1926)是一位重要的德語詩人，除了創作德語詩歌外還撰寫小說、劇本以及一些雜文和法語詩歌，其書信集也是里爾克文學作品的一個重要組成部分。對19世紀末的詩歌裁體和風格以及歐洲頹廢派文學都有深厚的影響。 此曲一開始，鋼琴即以不協和的音響迅速地營造了夜晚神秘而詭譎的氣氛。接著合唱一步一步地將不同詩句的主題帶進來，這些主題最後相互交織碰撞，燦爛輝煌，彷彿愛情的火花迸放！ Si je pourrais avec mes mains brûlantes f...    less
