Saturday’s concert made local news! A very complimentary article, too. 😊 https://utrecht.nieuws.nl/kunstcultuur/overrompelend-concert-van-domcantorij-voor-vrouwendag #choir #churchchoir #music

Choir concert yesterday, and today we sang one of the pieces in the morning service which is streamed. Magnificat by Chiara Maria Cozzolani. I had a little solo part, and it went pretty well to my relief. I think I figured out the linking to a certain timestamp. :) https://www.youtube.com/live/5uQq-vH3WWU?si=ob8Y9VZtcwHQaX7s&t=3050 #choir #churchchoir #cantorij

Choir concert today, exiting because I had a (tiny) solo. Last rehearsal was chaotic, at the concert everyone pulled themselves together. Audience was very enthousiastic according to the choir members who were collecting at the exit (these concerts are free entrance, voluntary contribution). Thought of a new word in Finnish: kolehdinkerääjäkuorolainen. Spotted a bird in the sachristy. :D #choir #churchchoir #music

Just to practise how to share a youtube video from a certain timestamp, hope this works as intended! Thank you everyone who gave advice. :) Our choir concerts are usually not streamed, unlike the Sunday services. But this was a special occasion celebrating the 650th anniversary of the province of Utrecht. So a composer from the province, Joannes Tollius (ca. 1550- ca. 1620)(aka Jan Tol if we're not being fancy) from Amersfoort, "Osculetur me osculo oris sui" and "Surge, propera amica mea". Later on in the video also Händel's Utrecht Te Deum which for obvious reasons we get perform pretty regularly. :) https://www.youtube.com/live/kizDZipR36c?si=mXYVb--U78-Es1fB #choir #churchchoir #music #classicalmusic

If there is a way to share a particular moment in a youtube video, instead of linking to the start of the video, I don't know it. But anyway, at about 1:10:30 here you can hear our choir singing some Gesualdo (a rather mild one mind you) at the service this morning, and have a look at one of the pretty windows in the Dom church. The volunteer who does the video took advantage of the fact that we sang around the baptismal font instead of where we usually stand. (I'm one of the people hidden by the chandelier) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3X5gxRLwnk #choir #churchchoir #music #classicalmusic
