Re: Libera in Moscow?

I see that Libera's website has confirmed the Moscow concert. Hopefully, this will be a nice introduction to Libera for lots of new fans from a new geographic area.

Let's see, a song in Russian perhaps? Not too much time to learn it though.

Re: Greetings from Perdido Key!

Greetings Eric, from 'around the corner' in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. Yes, I first bought a couple CDs about 5 years ago, and just saw them this year for the first time in April and August. (Looking forward to catching them in Atlanta again as well.) I have a feeling the new DVD and CD, along w...

Re: USA spring tour 2015...

This is definitely good news. And yes, hopefully the PBS airings will help fill seats at the concerts. Looks like I will plan on the Atlanta one, taking Friday off to get up there, and then have Saturday to get back. If any fans live locally, a good idea might be to print off some flyers or posters ...

Re: Songs of Praise

Perhaps this might include the recent 'Victorian factory' video as well, whatever song that might be. I thought the first WWI episode was fantastic. The three songs were deftly woven into the narrative, and it allowed the human side of Libera to show through as well. Hopefully someone (Jimmy Riddle?...

Re: Late 2014 US Tour

Re: merchandise. I too somehow got the feeling that there was just enough merchandise made for the August concert. And I think you might be correct about 'Libera of the US' being responsible for having it available, since they were working with Libera in promoting this concert for the first time. Pe...

Late 2014 US Tour

Good evening, I'm not sure if everyone's seen it yet, but Warner Classics put out notice that Libera will be in the U.S. again Oct. 25 - Nov. 2, and again in Dec. 21-24. http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/boychoir-phenomenon-libera-returns-to-us-for-october-and-december-tours-in-support-of-char...

Re: New here

A hearty welcome! My first concert(s) were the two in April, and I can echo your sentiments in that I was also pleasantly surprised at how well they sounded in person. I brought a youth group friend and we drove up from Florida. We took the boring I-95 on the way up, and the more scenic I-81 back th...

Re: USA summer 2014

By the way, I forgot rather someone on this thread or somewhere else mentioned it, but the reason they didn't look into the Washington National Cathedral for this DVD is because it is still undergoing restoration from the 2011 earthquake. It has netting on the inside ceiling where they're inspecting...

Re: USA summer 2014

Good evening all. I was excited to be able to go, and bring someone from our church youth group as well to see his first Libera concert. He thoroughly enjoyed it and didn't mind the drive from Florida. The concert was fantastic, and I'm sure the setting and lighting will bode well for the DVD. I bel...

Re: USA summer 2014

I'm hoping that a lot of people will be able to attend, especially since it's free. It would be really nice to see it packed, especially for Libera's sake, as an encouragement to them. I also hope that any other concerts are announced soon, so that people can plan accordingly. Also, if they're not t...

Filming in France

I see they are at the Thiepval Memorial to the Missing of the Somme. My guess is a music video for "I'm Dreaming of Home", since that's from the WWI movie Joyeux Noel. Of course it's possible they might do another video while they're there. Been a while, I believe, since they worked on a s...

Re: Arundel 2014

There's some parts in this video also that provide insight into their rehearsal atmosphere. At 3:55-5:45 and 8:25-9:15. Libera in Their Own Words. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xU7inOcgpa8 I took bits from this video and the Songs of Praise one, above, and showed it to our choir during one of our ...

Re: Greetings from Florida

On Wednesday, I decided to drive the rental car into the city, since on Google Maps I saw a parking lot on the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, where I was headed. I had reserved a spot on the 'Vertical Tour' (only Wednesdays at noon), taking 15 of us up small winding staircases onto the clerestory...

Re: Greetings from Florida

Thanks John and Yorkie! I've visited the forum for a while, and probably should have jumped in sooner. I'm in the Tampa Bay area, but I did get to poke around Celebration about three years ago during a reunion in Kissimmee - very nice town. I took a commuter bus from New Jersey and arrived at the ch...

Greetings from Florida

First, let me say a hearty "Thank you!" to those who maintain sites like this that allow fans to engage one another and stay informed. If my memory serves correctly, I believe I saw the 2002 "I Am the Day" video on TV somehow, about 6-8 years ago, and then bought Eternal, the Bes...
