Braddell Heights CC Youth Choir -
Braddell Heights CC Youth Choir was
established in 1988 by our conductress Mdm Ong Foon. The choir
consists of 4 sections: Sopranos, Altos, Tenors and Basses. At
present, the choir has a strength of 25 voices consisting of
undergraduates, students, businessmen, engineers, teachers,
contractors, designers etc. Currently, the choir conducts its weekly
practice at Braddell Heights CC on Saturday evening from 6-9 pm.
During this short 3-hour session, we learn to sing with good
techniques eg. good breathing skills, accurate facial expressions,
well-managed voice projection etc
-
Fairfield Choir - The Fairfield Choir has been established
since 1989. It started as an all-boys choir, then soon became a
mixed choir. Since then, the Choir has maintained high choral
standards, winning Gold, Distinction, Best Secondary School Choir
and Choir of the Year awards in the biennal SYF Choral Competition.
To date, the Choir consist of about 100 members, separated into four
main sections, Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Bass.
-
Philharmonic Chamber Choir, Singapore -
The Philharmonic
Chamber Choir is about versatility and adaptability, with a
challenging repertoire that frequently goes off the beaten path to
reproduce the percussive sounds of the lion dance, or the
nonsensical syllables of a Filipino children's chant. Never a choir
to shrink from vocal adventure, TPCC has combed Singapore's large
international community for coaches in such languages as Hungarian,
Mongolian and Austrian dialect to perfect its performances. Yet the
choir still excels at giving voice to the great traditions of
Western classical music, both a cappella and oratorio.
-
Republic Chorale (Republic Polytechnic Choir) -
The Republic Chorale was formed in
August 2003 with the support of advisor Mr. Varian Lim who is also
actively involved in a vocal group call IN TUNE. We started with a
humble 12 member strong choir consisting of 4 Male and 8 Female
singers, with 5 main sections, Basses, Tenors, Altos, Soprano 1 and
Soprano 2. Despite the small group of 10 people, we have made our
voices heard on only in The Republic but also to the public.
-
RVChorale (alumni site) -
Presently, there are about 30 members
in the choir alumni and the number is expected to increase. The
choir alumni would serve as an extension to the RV Choir, thus
ensuring dedicated talents are not lost when the choir members
graduate. To achieve professional recognition, we intend to take
part in the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM)
choral examinations
-
Singapore Symphony Chorus - The Singapore Symphony Chorus is
one of the finest choirs in South East Asia, performing 3-4 times
annually with the Singapore Symphony Orchestra at the Esplanade
Concert Hall. We are an amateur choir, 100 strong and growing, with
members coming from all walks of life and from all over the world.
We are always looking for new members to boost our strength.
-
Singapore Youth Choir Ensemble Singers - The SYC Ensemble
Singers (Formerly the Singapore Youth Choir) is a year older than
independent Singapore and one the longest serving community choirs
in the Nation.
-
Victoria Chorale -
Started by Mr Nelson Kwei in 1988, Victoria Chorale is one of
Singapore's top semi-professional choirs. Comprising graduates of
Victoria School and Victoria Junior College, the choir presently has
33 singers and performs an extensive repertoire ranging from sacred
Latin works to contemporary Asian songs and light jazz.
-
Vox Camerata -
We named
ourselves after the Florentine Camerata in the simple spirit that we
are simply people coming from all walks of lives to discuss and
learn more about the melodious delights our voices can actually
create. Some knew nothing about singing, except for the days of
music classes back in primary school; others have varied experiences
in choirs at various levels or just plainly enjoy belting out the
occasional song in a karaoke bar. In a nutshell, we've all been
drawn like a moth to a candleflame, in our weekly discovery of the
simple delight, of making music.
