Music is the food of the soul, singing in a chorus deeply unites us with others, creates new and solid bonds because it takes us on a journey where each uniqueness mixes with the others to create the harmony of major and subtle chords.
In 2024 we´ve had several concerts in Tavira, São Bras de Alportel, an open air concert in Bordeira and of course the competition in Calpe (Spain). Therefore, it felt good to finally have a full concert at our homebase, the charming and comfortable Republica14 Cultural Centre in Olhão. With a sold out concert, chairs in the isles and people standing, it felt like a warm welcome and a true homecoming.
Our next goal is the European competition in Sweden in May 2025. It is the gold medal won in Spain in April 2024 that propels us to Sweden, it is stressful, magical and stimulating. All our efforts will be concentrated towards this objective, several weekends of coaching, hours of rehearsal, stage preparations, changes in our costumes, in short... an adventure…In November we enjoyed an amazing coaching under the spell of Mieneke Klinkert, musical director of The Skyline Sisters Dutch Barbershop chorus. It was intense, hard work, learning, feeling, getting out of our comfort zone and much more… Our president Kersti handed our chimney as a thank you to Mieneke.
Other coachings are planned as well as dress rehearsal concerts in Spring 2025. We will let you know when and where.
To get our ship to the shores of Helsingborg, we have created a fundraising campaign, here is the link: https://gofund.me/1a9a487c Of course you can still donate and be part of our journey! Thank you for supporting us...
But for now the holiday mood is starting to set in. We still have three rehearsals before Christmas and a well deserved break until the middle of January.
We wish all our friends and followers a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We are looking forward to keeping you updated regarding our activities during 2025.
