I don’t recognize him but it’s been about 7 months since I last saw them.
I thought it was just me!

It looks like a new album is on the way. Glad to see some new faces and a possible return ( Orlando ) ?

I’m guessing there may be a few newbies because losing Luca as a lead treble with Joseph being a little way off filling those boots, they may have brought in a couple of ‘oven readies’. They’ve done it plenty of times before.

Remember our TOP trebles from last year and the year before have all either had complete voice breaks or their voices are in transition. Even the likes of Nathan and Morgan will be at their peak and could well be at the start of their transitions.

Couple of stills from the boys’ recording session. Definitely some newbies.

Also very happy to see Mitchel still there, as I felt sure he’d leave after his voice break.

It seems to me that Morgan is still in the top group. The number has reduced though.
Possibly Joseph and Morgan might carry just by themselves the two-thirds of the solos, or even more.

True.

Not forgetting Thomas M who has been impressing for at least since Christmas.

Then there’s the newbies, a couple of whom look core aged. Could be that at least one of them might be a soloist.🤷🏽‍♀️

It will certainly be interesting what happens in Ely very soon. To those who are attending please be sure to give us a full report, please! :mrgreen:

For those who are lost with the new faces... The Furby has not been back on Libera Passion (french database) yet, but in the meanwhile, I have made new topics for the most recent boys :D check it there : https://libera-passion.exprimetoi.net/f ... -de-libera

I have started making updates on the current boys concerning their concerts and solo, but I do not have the same capacity as The Furby on the website, so you'll have to check the last post to see it. Also, this gallery has'nt been updated since april 2023, sorry but I can't do it.

From the pictures Libera put on social media, I would say there are at least 2 new boys !

I wanted to see if Chat GPT could identify the song on top of the pile in the Instagram post above, so I used flat.io to enter the visible elements. How do you think it did?

You mean to say Libera is going to perform "Sanctus" during a concert ? :lol: Looks like a solid credible guess :lol: ChatGPT might be onto something !

I did not know ChatGPT could read music, but yes one of the first questions I ever asked it was about Libera and the answer was pretty accurate. You better not ask it details about which soloists for which song though, it's turning full chaos.

Good news .

Well, no not really :(

Looks like there are railway works going on over the Saturday and Sunday of the Ely concert so there are no direct trains too and from London. They will be operating a rail replacement service (i.e. a bus) for part of the journey which means it will take about an hour longer to get there/back.

At the moment you can catch a train to Royston, then get a bus to Cambridge and then get a train from Cambridge to Ely (and reverse it for the way back). It looks like the latest time back on Saturday is a train at 22:53 - miss that and you are sleeping on the station!
If I’ve got owt to say I says it, and if I’ve got owt to ask I asks it.

Yeah, renting a car might be best for some under the circumstances.....maybe not quite THAT car though :lol: :wink: The thought of driving on the left scares me, I feel like I'd get myself killed. I won't be in Ely but I hope this information helps those who plan on attending. Thanks, Yorkie!

The seat B16 (2nd row, third seat from the aisle on the right) for the Ely concert is now available. The person, who that ticket was meant for, cannot come to Ely, sadly.

Send me a PM or contact me in another usual way if you are interested.
