Godwin here a new post after quite a long time recommending some choral pieces that i like to choir members i posted this in the forum as well repost here in case some ppl cant access to the forum but do make time to make it active
Sleep: Light song, dynamics and stuffs. Do hear UMchoirs and Whitacre's own choir doing this song. Famous Piece tried by MaoYong's choir as well. Said to be Mr Whitacre's best written piece. I think I'm biased, i still think Lux aurumque is better. I tried both songs with my group of choristers, sleep was a pretty easy to learn piece but i still feel Lux Aurumque was a stronger song.
MuYangGuNiang: Haunting Melody, hear the one arranged by Mr Kwei. In chinese language. Oh ya, Mr toh hates chinese.
Illay Gandangan: Rhythmic piece, lots of dynamics. Basically belting folk piece. This piece is pretty "lengmen" so you cant really find it common around the Internet.
WadeInTheWater: Hear the one by "Sharing a new song choir". That soloist faired very well. We got the scores a pretty long time ago (about the same time as Ubi Caritas) but didnt touch on it.
Credo: Another powerful piece by Ralph Hoffmann. About Christianity, the crucification and stuffs. Lots of dynamics. Hear the one is his album. I think Maoyong's choir faired well: can find from Youtube.
DorvenDalai: A Rhythmic Piece our choir did reasonably well. Hear the one by Austin College, its good.
LukLukLumbu: The sec4s must have heard and loved this one. Also a rhythmic Piece. Pretty slow to start but ends as a fast and catchy piece.
Meplalian: Interpretation- as the Mimic of dancers and Instruments. Another piece that plays on atmosphere. One of the songs for SYF2007. Mr Toh's love. Hear Mr Kwei conduct this on youtube.
Pamugan: Hear the one Catholic High School did for SYF2007. About a hunter and a bird. Well written piece and they sung well.
KasarMieLaGahi: Another piece we did for SYF2007. Dreading and powerful piece about the Earth and how tired it is. This one really makes you tired. It is actually commented that the rhythm for this piece is hard to get especially when the choreography comes in but I think it didnt really hindered us.

The AHS Choir in the last few years has witnessed unprecedented growth and accomplishment under the inspired baton of our resident conductor, Terrence Toh.
A few of these achievements include the coveted Gold with Honours at the 2007 and 2009 SYF Central Judging for Choir and a Gold at the International Festival of Songs in Olomouc, Czech Republic in 2008.
However, these accolades are not the choir’s only source of pride and joy, but rather the instilling of a passion for the choral art form and a deep desire to bring music to our community.
With this focus in mind, the choir has sung in a host of community based performances, including our annual concerts and as invited guests at various ceremonies held by government and community organizations.
For Terrence Toh and the Anglican High School Choir, no stage is too small nor informal, no challenge too insurmountable nor unnerving, as long as we stay true to the music we make.
