Announcement of the Second Wave of Members Coming to Japan!
2023/10/7
Excitingly, for this year’s tour “LIBERA Angel Voices Tour 2023 - Kizuna Forever,†7 LIBERA alumni will be participating as staff!
The members coming to Japan are as follows!
Sam COATES (Music Director & Sound)
Joshua MADINE (Piano)
Liam CONNERY (Conductor & Assistant Music Director)
Kavana CROSSLEY (Sound in Charge)
Matthew JANSEN (Lighting in Charge)
Ben BYWATER (Stage Director)
Tadhg FITZGERALD (Stage Director)
Everyone knows Sam Coates, who has succeeded Robert Prizeman and is currently leading LIBERA. This will be the first performance in Japan for LIBERA under the leadership of Sam Coates.
Josh, who was the conductor during the visit to Japan from May to June this year, will appear on stage as a pianist and keyboard player this time.
Liam, who first conducted a LIBERA performance at the Korean show, will also be the conductor in Japan. His conducting style in the Korean performance, where music seemed to overflow even from his back view, was very charming. Please look forward to it!
Kavana and Matthew, who have been active as staff in domestic and overseas performances, will finally be in charge of sound and lighting at the Japanese performance.
Ben and Tadhg, who were on stage in 2019, will be active as stage directors.
So, this year’s performance in Japan will be created by the LIBERA family, both on and behind the stage. Sam and Josh, who were on stage during the first performance in Japan in 2005, and other LIBERA alumni continue to help with LIBERA. It’s an era that would make Robert deeply emotional and smile down from heaven. I believe that the form of LIBERA that Robert aimed for is right here.
With the fans who have always supported them, LIBERA will continue forever. A new step that proves this, just two weeks until the 10th performance in Japan!
We are really looking forward to the atmosphere that can only be created by former LIBERA members!
This year marks a significant milestone for LIBERA. Not just because of the decade-long history of performances in Japan, but also because it represents the evolution of the group. It's heartwarming to see former members return in new capacities to contribute to the group's legacy.
The deep-rooted connections between the fans and LIBERA are evident. The unwavering support has been a driving force, propelling the choir to new heights. This synergy between the performers and the audience is palpable during live performances, where the mutual admiration and love create an atmosphere like no other.
One cannot help but reflect on the journey of each individual member. From the early days when they first joined as young, enthusiastic singers, through the years as they honed their skills and became the face of the choir, and now, as they return as accomplished professionals and mentors, bringing with them a wealth of experience to pass on to the next generation.
The legacy of Robert Prizeman, the visionary behind LIBERA, continues to thrive. His dedication and passion for music, combined with his ability to bring out the best in every choir member, are pillars upon which the choir stands today. His dream of creating a space where young voices can shine in harmony, unburdened by the weight of the world, has become a reality that continues to inspire millions.
As we count down to the much-anticipated 10th performance in Japan, fans eagerly await the harmonious melodies and ethereal performances that LIBERA is known for. But this year, with the infusion of the old with the new, it promises to be even more special.
It's not just about the songs or the performances; it's about the journey, the bond, and the story of perseverance, growth, and love. As we gear up for another unforgettable show, one thing is clear: The spirit of LIBERA, with its deep-rooted history and promising future, will resonate forever, touching hearts and souls across the world.
This reminds me of collectible action figures from my childhood, where the same action hero character would have a new outfit or accessory to entice buyers for this "new" product.
