You're kidding Liberavieve. It must be Britten night because I just finished listening to Britten's War Requiem for the first time in my life, and that was an overwhelming experience. Rarely has music been so moving and breathtaking (pretty much literally at times). It is like the deepest hopelessne...

Four weeks today my friends, just four weeks today. Maartendas I'll probably get there late afternoon so I can enjoy a couple of refreshing pints in the bar :wink: Were you the guy with a Dutch I.D. badge at St George's? Nope, I wasn't at St. George's. I'll see if I can have dinner in Epsom somewhe...

Tough tough tough one. Plumpuff you have a way of keeping us occupied! As we in the Netherlands would say, "it keeps you off the street" :) I finally chose Time because it never fails to enthrall me. His flowing soaring voice just gets me every(..erm..)time ;) Strong, passionate, enchanted...

When did Ed sing Salva Me?

And I assume you are including songs from the Leiden concert DVD (Ave Maria, Abide With Me) but then you missed out Stay With Me and Prayer...

Less than 30 days remaining to Epsom concert Now ! :) http://img836.imageshack.us/img836/5358/epsomremaining1702.jpg (click the image to go on the updating timer ;) )   So, I guess we should decide on how we're going to meet up and how we're going to recognize each other. Let's say we meet up 19:00...

Right now... I am growing increasingly annoyed with myself, as I've somehow managed to lose my only building/room key in my room. I came in from a shower with it— and now it's nowhere to be found. I've torn up the bed, flipped through all of the books currently out, gone through my clothes... nothi...

This was hard! Going Home - the first Josh solo I ever heard and one that greatly contributed to me falling for Libera. I still think the way he sings "break" in "break of day" sounds just like that - the new day breaking (luckily not his voice yet! ;)). Love and Mercy - the vers...

Hey gang, For me it was around about 2000, when I found the 1993 "Angel Voices" album from "St. Philips Boys Choir" and tracks like: Pie Jesu San Damiano Always There Sailing This was a better boy's choir than I had ever heard before and I was definitely hooked from there. I qui...

I think you'll be happier in your church choir, if you were having second thoughts about the other! I hope you have lots of fun with it! I'm so very relieved right now... we just got our progress reports which would determine if our grades were high enough to compete in an upcomming choir contest. ...

I first heard Libera with the Sanctus II video on Youtube although I wasn't hooked at first. It was so far removed from what I normally listened to even though my taste in music has always been very broad. But choral singing, let alone boy choirs was not on my radar yet. Some time after I first saw ...

Well you can't go wrong with Sir Elton John! I wish you the best of luck in your audition. I think you'll do fine! Well guess what... I just called to cancel the audition. Reason for that was that I had a growing feeling that this would not be the choir for me. I'm sure I would have done fine, and ...

Hi Maarten :) I hope all is well with you, my friend. I wish you the best of luck with your choir audition and I hope you can get the article approved for the concert. I'll read it for sure and have no doubt it will be great :) Unfortunately, I can't attend Epsom, but if I can read about it, well, ...
