Guillaume. - - - Sheet music: https://sydneyguillaume.com/product/gagot/ - - - (Spanish Translation) Desde que desperté esta mañana he pasado por altos y bajos, Corriendo en círculos como un perro loco y malo. Hablo, canto, duermo, me levanto; Rezo, grito, es una confusión tras otra. Una confusión aquí, una confusión allá, Una confusión arriba, una confusión abajo, Confusión en todos lados, una confusión tras otra. Mis pensamientos son confusos, Mis acciones son confusas, Mis palabras son confusas, Mi visión es confusa. Todo está enredado: Dolor y alegría, duda y fe, Aversión y esperanza, bien y mal. Mi cabeza da vueltas y vueltas, Todo está enredado. Qué confusión! Día a día, lucho una batalla; La contradanza vuelve a comenzar a diario. Canto, bailo, grito: “Hurra!” De repente y rápidamente vuelvo a estar en la confusión. En medio de e...    less

The forty boys of the choir are educated at Westminster Under School, part of London’s historic Westminster School, established before 1179 as a monastic School of the Benedictine Abbey of St Peter. In 1560 the School was re-founded by Queen Elizabeth I for boys to be “liberally instructed in good books to the greater honour of the state.” Ever since, the School’s history has been intertwined with the momentous state events and political turmoils of the capital. Old Westminsters dominated Parliament for most of the eighteenth century and the output of leading politicians, statesmen and soldiers has continued to this day. The School’s contribution to literature, philosophy and the arts has been immense, from such alumni as Ben Jonson, John Dryden, Henry Purcell and Christopher Wren to A.A. Milne, Adrian Boult, John Gielgud and Peter Ustinov, from Andrew Lloyd-Webber and Stephen Poliakoff to Julian Anderson, Ian Bostridge, Helena B...    less

It has been declared one of the state songs of Louisiana as a result of its association with former state governor and country music singer Jimmie Davis who, along with one Charlie Mitchell, bought the "rights" to the song from Paul Rice (of the Rice Brothers Gang who first recorded it) for $35 in late 1939; Jimmie Davis published it, with "words and music by Jimmie Davis and Charles Mitchell". There are still people alive, however, who remember hearing the song long before 1937 and what these people remember is the name of the musician with whom Paul Rice played in the early 1930's: Oliver Hood of LaGrange, Georgia. Contrary claims notwithstanding, Oliver Hood wrote "You Are My Sunshine." He wrote the words to the song on the back of a brown paper sack, which his children still possess, and he first performed the song at a VFW convention in LaGrange in 1933; he sang it through a megaphone out of a hotel window, and he sang no less than twenty verses, most of which...    less

Recorded live on December 8, 2013, at All Saints Episcopal Church in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Performed by the Lyric Choir ensemble of the Girl Choir of South Florida. Artistic Director: Wallis Peterson, Harpist: Charlene Conner. When night's shadows fly New Year's dawn floods all the sky; And joyful voices sound, joyful voices sound. Branches of the fragrant pine Hang ev'rywhere around, ev'rywhere around Leaves so dainty fine Freshly gathered, dewy shine, And glitter in the light, glitter in the light. From Kadusa's lofty pinetree Waving, on the height, on the height.  less

Tomislav Veršić in the School year 1992/93 by merging two School ensembles founded a year earlier: Girls’ Choir, and traditional Dalmatian male vocal group (so-called “klapa”) “Šufit”. At the end of the following School year, the choir participated for the first time at the Croatian Youth Music Festival, choral competition which is traditionally held in Varaždin, thereby winning the Silver Plaque. In 1996 the performance of the choir at the same event was rewarded with Gold Plaque. After this success, the choir received new, more experienced members, and began to act as the Mixed Choir of Cultural and Artistic Association “Aspalathos”. Although new ensemble soon became well recognized and multiply awarded, it ceased to be a part of the School and thus of this historical review as well. The choir continued its work under the name of “Marko Marulić” High School in the School year 2004/05. Since 2006 until now, the Choir has performe...    less
