Libera in Taiwan April 2013

.. looks like they were reading it from something in front of them (presumably some sort of phonetic spelling of what they had to say).

Yes, I remarked this also - eyes can tell a lot of things

Note that according to Cassius there is a video of "Moon" in production. No information on how it is to be released.

Cassius' voice is deepening.

Guess it will be online from the 2nd April. A little late to support the ticket sales but better then never.

Fluency in Mandarin is not required to understand the mood expressed by this beautiful melody. I was sitting in a café having breakfast this morning and I must admit to a tear in the eye while listening to the newly posted promotional video on my phone. I am sure that there will also be tears shed amongst the members of the concert audiences this week in Taiwan. Well done, Libera!

There is only 12 boys in the video and the oldest boy would be Matthew R A or Eoghan in this video . I wonder if that means a lot of the older boys wont be present for the tour.

[labbie]

Some of the older ones may miss the tour due to school commitments, but as has happened in previous spring tours, there will probably be at least twenty boys on tour.

Dylan is in the video - 1 minute or so in, just behind Isaac. Looks a little different with a shorter haircut, and of course like all the boys growing up quickly .

Watch Michael U.R.'s face when Cassius stutters.

Amazing what you learn from tv - I never knew that Libera started out as a Catholic choir.......

Funnily enough, small "c" catholic could perhaps be used to describe what they have become:

1.broad or wide-ranging in tastes, interests, or the like; having sympathies with all; broad-minded; liberal.
2.universal in extent; involving all; of interest to all.
3.pertaining to the whole Christian body or church.

Certainly applies to the appeal of their music, which transcends age, cultural, social, religious, and geographical boundaries.

Actually the churches of the Anglican Communion profess their Catholic faith with every service - a couple of times at least with each service. However I don't think that Korea has much in the way of an Anglican community. They do have a large Roman Catholic community, so perhaps the mistake is understandable.
