Oak Bay Men's Choir Strikes Gold

May 25, 2007 | 9:56 AM

The lions would like to congratulate the Oak Bay Secondary School's Men's Choir for their Gold-winning performance in the recent Vancouver MusicFest. Conductor Sally Murphy writes:

 Dear lions,

 I thought you'd like to know that Senior Concert Choir and  Men's Choir were invited to MusicFest in Vancouver and both groups received Gold.  The Men's Choir was the only male ensemble in the whole choral section and they really sang well.  They performed a simple arrangement of "Vive la Compagnie", "Hush, Somebody's Calling My Name", "For the Fallen",and "Russian Hammer Song".  "For the Fallen" is a piece they sing particularly well.  They have the great sound of Chor Leoni in their head and it moves me to tears everytime they sing it. Needless to say, the work we have done with you and the Lions has been formative in the accomplishments of these young men.

 In gratitude,

Sally B. Murphy
Oak Bay Secondary

Well done, guys! Keep on singing!
