AY 2014/2015

Hi Chorale!

AY2014/2015 has commenced, which means that a new Management Committee has been appointed! *drumrolls*

.
.
.


The new Management Committee for AY2014/2015 is as follows;

President - Leong Jun Li
Vice President - Justin Ong
Secretary - Lee Hong Hui
Librarian - Chia Wan Lin
Quarter Mistress - Simone Tan
Student Conductors - Foo Yu Kang, Sophia Tay

Let's not forget our dearest Section Leaders! *drumrolls again* They are;


Soprano 1 - Sophia Tay
Soprano 2 - Leong Jun Li
Alto - Karen Ong, Ashlyn Wong
Tenor & Bass - Foo Yu Kang

As the committee for the new AY, we can guarantee that we will continue bringing TP Chorale to greater heights! For instance, we will be planning many more activities for you guys, i.e. concerts; we could even be going on a little trip (hint hint)! Nothing is guaranteed quite as yet, but we promise that we'll do our best to keep the chorale's spirit alive! :)

Meanwhile, here are a few things for all Chorale members to note:

1. PRACTICES - DATE, TIME, & VENUE

Practices will be held every Tuesday and Wednesday, 6.30PM to 9.30PM! The venue will be at Studio 7, SAA Building (behind the South Wing).

Please reach the studio at 6.30PM SHARP (unless you are still having lessons), as we will start practice on the dot.

2. SOCIAL MEDIA SITES

Do stay connected with all TP Chorale social media networks! We will be constantly posting important updates and reminders, and occasionally, videos and recordings made during practices will be put up for everyone's benefit of self-improvement! So please don't miss out!

Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/92920614641/
Twitter - https://twitter.com/tpchorale
Blog - http://tp-chorale.blogspot.com
Youtube - http://www.youtube.com/user/TPChorale

.
.
.

The next few months of Chorale practice will progressively become more intensive and hectic, so please try not to fall sick! Stay hydrated and healthy (yes this is nagging), as constantly missing practices will hinder the progress of not only the individual, but the whole choir itself!

Have a good Labour Day everyone! \(^v^)/

Passing Down Ceremony

It had been an eventful journey for TP Chorale in AY12/13.
From taking part in our very first competition (The National Acapella Championship), school events such as National Day and Open House, to our annual concert (EVOS II: Our World in 80 Minutes), and also small gatherings and bonding sessions we have in between. TP Chorale has grown even more, and at some point gained a few new titles.



To end off the academic year, the Choir had a mini potluck session filled with, not only food, but also laughter, as well as some music from the chamber group performances by our very own members.

Living to the name of a "fun-loving" Choir, below are evidences of how musically talented we are, and how some of us like to spice things up. Enjoy!


Somewhere Over The Rainbow + Just The Way You Are + I'm Yours



Dancing Queen




Sesame Street + Powerpuff Girls Theme Songs




Officially Missing You + Take Me Home + Titanium + Viva La Vida

Music Vox: Sands of Time


As most of the Poly students are enjoying their holidays, TP Chorale was busy with the last event of the academic year.

It was the first ever collaboration between art groups in Temasek Polytechnic, and we were a part of it! Together with TP Band and Music Vox themselves, the Choir collaborated with both CCAs in yesterday's event - Music Vox: Sands of Time.

In the rock band concert, the choir transformed from a choral group to versatile singers providing background vocals. Almost like a scene out of Glee, we sang and danced through songs in our headbands and bow ties.

Though exhausted, considering that each performer had to attend practices and rehearsals for 5 consecutive days, the choristers enjoyed the eye-opening experience.
