Morna Edmundson, Artistic Director, takes us through two of her warmups, 1) using folk song melodies to encourage legato singing and natural phrasing and 2) "Umbrellas" to ease the top of a woman's range. Elektra's mandate is "to inspire and lead in the choral art form through excellence in performance and the creation, exploration, and celebration of women's repertoire." Your thoughts on the video? Let's start a conversation!

TRANSLATION:
Listen!
Faraway centuries, on the shores of Estonia
there once began a song.
In the language of mothers, the spirit of fathers
it was carried across to us.
In sonorous language, in the spirit of a million
it lives on.
This song began in a dusky time and was born
from the work of voiceless ones.
This song was born in a lowly house and it
rose as an oath in the night.
.
A powerless clan began listening,
the song was good for the soul,
for it spoke a heavenly story,
that freedom must come to them.
And the powerless clan awoke,
and felt the heads on their shoulders.
This song will not die, nor this story,
this song for us is good.
I stepped out to start my voice,
ringing on the rocky hillside,
lifting up the celebration,
cheering up the ring of friends.
I know my friend... less

Our members are mainly from around the Castlebar area, but with five from Ballinrobe, more from Swinford, Kilkelly and Ballyglass we now truly represent our county.
Under the musical direction of Deirdre Lee, from Kiltimagh, Deirdre has been our musical director since the choir’s inception, an honors music graduate of University College Maynooth, having studied under Professor Gerard Gillen. She has been involved in many musicals and events as musical director, arranged and conducted. Deirdre is a teacher of music, choir and orchestra in St. Joseph’s Secondary School, Castlebar. She has arranged many of the pieces we perform in four part for male voice. which were previously not available to us.
