Recording session for Spirited People CD July 2007
 

Festival Singers is a Wellington-based community choir with a 32 year history and practice of seeking to work alongside the Christian church. This includes singing in local church services and providing music for weddings, funerals and other events.

Our public concerts include large classical works – oratorios, cantatas and masses, as well as smaller pieces from all over the world. We also choose to support local composers and expose exciting new repertoire by regularly performing New Zealand compositions. In 2007 we recorded and released a CD of New Zealand music featuring Irish folk band, piano accordion and soloists called Spirited People. Music by Jonathan Berkahn and Colin Gibson was especially featured, also New Zealand poetry.


Our Next Concerts

Our performance programme this year includes two New Zealand premieres: the Grosse Orgelmesse by Haydn in September and a Creation Cantata by American composer Rene Clausen in November. Both of these have featured soloists and are accompanied by chamber orchestras.
