Re: 2018 US Summer Tour

Exciting news! I'm very happy to see that Libera will be touring the US again this Summer! The only thing is I'd love it if they performed a bit closer than 900 miles from my home this time! :)

Re: St. Philip's CD

A good subject to discuss. There's much music mentioned by the others that I am unfamiliar with by name but I may know some of it by ear. I'd love to hear some music with the older Libera/St Philips members adding the deeper notes for the balance that I really enjoy from some of the English College ...

Re: Libera at Songs of Praise 'Big Sing' 2017

I suppose it would be possible for someone to capture that part of the performance and share it privately among friends here? Just thinking of options. When do you think the broadcast would be made public?

Re: Wiener Sängerknaben

The evolution of the Wiener Sängerknaben provides a cautionary lesson to other choirs, i.e. that even a choir with centuries of tradition can lose its way when it compromises on its musical standards. I'm old enough to remember attending a WSK concert 50 years ago, and my impression is that its sta...

Re: Libera Concert in China (2017)

Ari, this is one of the most comprehensive reviews of any sort that I have read! Nobody would know that English is not your native language. I am completely impressed by your ability to express yourself so very well! I think Surpinto's reply to you expresses how I feel better than I could hope to wr...

Re: Three Wings - similar to Libera

I am looking forward to receiving my copies soon. They are coming from the UK and I wasn't given any expected delivery date. I could have ordered the MP3 download but I really prefer the hard copy. :)

Re: Concert at Ely Cathedral in May 2018

Actually, a perfect opportunity would be the upcoming Libera concert in Ely in May 2018 :wink: . Maybe you could consider this? :D I agree and that is why I will now attend the Ely concert. I booked my flight and hotels just today. :D This may be one of the craziest things I have ever done when it ...
