text: Keats (from Ode to a Nightingale)
Darkling I listen; and, for many a time
I have been half in love with easeful Death,
Call'd him soft names in many a musèd rhyme,
To take into the air my quiet breath;
Now more than ever seems it rich to die,
To cease upon the midnight with no pain

Artistic leader: the parents, Zita and Vilmos Tóth, but the children also participate in creating Musical conceptions and decisions.
The parents have been singing in Choirs since they were children and have participated in numerous competitions, festivals and courses. The children have also sung in Choirs from an early age, usually singing solos. They study singing, Musical theory and instrumental Music.

Our mission is to contribute to the distribution of Zoltán Kodály’s spiritual heritage, his Musical education method, and to promote it Worldwide.

VI) of the Requiem that I composed in 2007, as performed by the Orlando Chamber Singers under the direction of Gregory Ruffer on May 18, 2008.

"Life's work well done,
Life's race well run,
Life's crown well won,
Now comes rest."
--- Edward Hazen Parker
If [they] have given you delight
By aught that [they] have done,
Let [them] lie quiet in that night
Which shall be yours anon:
and for that little, little span
The dead are borne in mind
Seek not to question other than
The [deeds] [they] leave behind.

17-22 September 2024
Paralia, Greece
The International Choir festival "Music & Sea" takes place annually in the middle of September in the beautiful village of Paralia, Greece. Paralia is a touristic seaside village situated on the west coast of the Thermaic Gulf and in the shadow of Olympus.
The Festival has two parts: competitive and non-competitive. However, the character and the main concept of both parts is joining Music, vacation, friendship and fun. The idea of the Festival is to bring the Music closer to the people and to present the Music on the streets and the squares of Paralia, Olympic Beach and Katerini. All Choir ensembles, regardless of the members’ gender and age can apply for participation at the Festival.
