VOCAL MANIA, 10 NOVEMBER 08, SINGAPORE CONFERENCE HALL

The A Cappella Society is happy to present Vocal Mania 2008, a choral cum a cappella concert to be held at the Singapore Conference Hall on the 10th of November, in support of presenting more performance opportunities to local choirs in larger venues and allowing them to explore a variety of acoustic settings and of course, to perform for a sizable audience.

Perhaps your school choir may appreciate an evening outing to a concert that will showcase not only traditional choral works but also pop a cappella? We would definitely love to have you at the concert.

This year, we present a range of established choirs in performance and they will present a host of songs from different musical genres. The stars of the evening are: St Andrew's Secondary School Choir, Christ Church Secondary School Choir, Ang Mo Kio Secondary School Choir, Pasir Ris Secondary School Choir, FajarCappella, TAS Youth Voices.

a freaking haiku

a freaking haiku,

this i type onto my blog,

just for you to read.

it has been much fun,

preparing for the exams,

the major, big 'O'.

through the ups and downs,

countless papers and time spent,

prepping for the 'O'.

let us not forget,

we're all in this together,

toiling day by day.

a decade ending,

a new journey coming soon,

where we separate.

so let's end it well,

let's end with a major bang,

unforgettable.

the end.
