PG Carnivalesque" under the patronage of Prof. Krzysztof Wilde, rector of Gdańsk Tech, attracted several hundred people who listened to daring perforMances of popular pop music hits. During the perforMance we heard choral arrangements of hits such as: "Dancing Queen", "Memory", "California Dreamin'" and "Maria". This time it was not Mozart or Bach, but ABBA, Queen and songs from the musical West Side Story that graced the walls of the Gdansk University of Technology in carnivalesque musical artistic creations. Jazz musicians performed along with the choir, and the musical effects were accompanied by a unique lighting arrangement, which required appropriate space and audience arrangement. The more-than-hour-long perforMance by the Academic Choir of the Gdańsk University of Technology, conducted by Prof. Mariusz Mróz and accompanied by musicians from the Music Academy in Bydgoszcz, ended with joint singing, encores and a standing ovation.  less

So in most musician's careers there comes a point where they have to choose between making music that they enjoy or making music that is popular. With this song I've chosen to do what I enjoy. I hope you all will enjoy it too, but if not, don't worry, I will be getting back to songs you recognize (eventually). As always no autotune or any vocal trickery. Please like, comment, and subscribe, and above all share with your friends! -Composed by Darmon Meader--  less

Le monde entier tressaille d'espérance En cette nuit qui lui donne un Sauveur. Peuple à genoux, attends ta délivrance. Noël, Noël, voici le Rédempteur, Noël, Noël, voici le Rédempteur ! --- Lyrics (English) Midnight, Christians, it is the solemn hour, When God as Man descended unto us To erase the stain of original sin And to end the wrath of His Father. The entire world thrills with hope On this night that gives it a Savior. People kneel down, wait for your deliverance. Christmas, Christmas, here is the Redeemer, Christmas, Christmas, here is the Redeemer!  less

He shunned the Countess’ parties; he yawned at town meetings; he would not let the doctor take his pulse; he did not go to church on Sundays. Oh what a strange Man is the Man in the Castle! First Madrigal: Ev’ry Sunday afternoon, soft winds fanning the fading sun, all the respectable folk went out walking slowly on the pink promenade by the sea. Proud husbands velvety-plump, with embroider’d silk-pale ladies. At four o’clock they all greeted each other; They spoke ill of each other at six: “How d’you do?” “Very well, thank you.” “Have you heard?” “Pray, do tell me.” “Tcha tcha tcha tcha tcha ra tcha ra tcha...” “How funny, how amusing, how odd! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!” “How well you look!” “How pretty your dress!” “Thank you.” “Thank you.” “Good-bye.” “Good-bye.” “Isn’t she a gossip!” “Isn...    less
