Juni 2021, feiert der Mitbegründer der legendären Band Toto, David Paich, seinen 67. Geburtstag. Er komponierte 1982 den Welthit „Rosanna“ und bezog sich nach eigener Aussage bei diesem Lied auf alle Frauen, die er kannte. Der Song gewann 1983 einen Grammy Award als Single des Jahres.

The objective was to bring about musical performances (of choral works by foreign and Nigerian composers) of sufficiently high standard for international consumption, within the limitations of national resources. The CHORALE which has grown in size to over 100 singers has given numerous concerts in Lagos and other towns in Nigeria, including Aba, Abakaliki, Abeokuta, Abuja, Benin, Calabar, Eket, Enugu, Ibadan, Ife, Nsit Atai, Oko, Owerri, Port Harcourt, Umuahia and Uyo.

In November 2003, the group featured at the opening ceremonies of the Commonwealth heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) in Abuja, and the recent Nigerian centen...    less

But I took on the challenge and here is the result. As always, comments are most welcomed. Email me at rain@magma.ca, if you'd like more info. I would like to acknowledge the a cappella choir that I sing in, The Stairwell Carollers, and our director Pierre Massie, for their musical inspiration these past 26 years. And with deepest appreciation to my brother Adam Rain and my friend Geneviève Lajoie for their invaluable support throughout my composing journey.  less
