Hope you enjoy you stay here! :) "Music is the one incorporeal entrance into the higher world of knowledge which comprehends mankind but which mankind cannot comprehend." - Ludwig van Beethoven
Hello choir. I'm not going to give a speech about how we should all kowtow to your seniors and give your utmost respect to them. Well, since I'm a Sec Four, and I'm kinda going to retire soon, I just thought I'll post here for the first time.
Erm, well, somebody told me to post this up here instead of letting it rot at my own blog. I think it was Christopher. Or was it Christabel? Anyways, this is the translation of Ave Maria. I guess we should all know what we're singing about, right? Or were you all singing words in an alien tongue that you all didn't understand all this time?
So I hope this thingy will help in bringing out some of the magic and stuff.
Ave Maria
Ave Maria Hail Mary
gratia plena, Dominus tecum full of grace, the Lord is with you
Benedicta tu in mulieribus Blessed are you among women
et benedictus fructus ventris tui Jesus and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus
Sancta Maria, Mater Dei Holy Mary, Mother of God
ora pro nobis peccatoribus pray for us sinners
nunc et in hora mortis nostrae now, and in the hour of death
Ave.... Hail....

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.
