Input "Hawaii Sacred Choir" A special video is "A Hawaiian Hallelujah" We are the only King's College-type choir (with choirboys, choirgirls and adult ATBs) in Hawai'i. We have been invited by Ely Cathedral in Cambridgeshire, UK, to sing as "choir in residence" for a week in July 2014, taking over their choir's duties of singing 8 services that week.
