I used to sing in this choir which I am very proud of!! Though I did not participate in this particular competition but I was at the EGP in 2000 which we won. We sang this Vocalizzo then also... It is one of my favourites. God, I'm so surprised to see this video on YouTube

[joinchoir]

What a world we live in that I can view and listen to these amazing voices half a world away and still be moved deeply by the experience. YouTube and similar sites have taken what was once a temporally fleeting art and made it a lasting moment captured in time. Thank you singers for dedicating so much time adn effort. Thank you director for dedicating your life to this lovely art.

Потрясающе!

[kalbo1991]

if it were not video-covered, i would not believe that this is a children's choir.

so amazing

[luigimiu]

Fantastic!!!

[operasospiro]

[kuangchien]

Sergei Rachmaninoff -- Vocalize

[Natalia2102]

Miss you, angels, and love you very much!! The most wonderful and touching time for me was when I sang in this choir....and since then life is beautiful...because music lives in me. I thank my parents, my teachers, maestro and my friends for making that experience come true  :-)

[lykideus]

Are they Italian?

[Natalia2102]

They are Russian....from beautiful Moscow  :-)

[tonyhawk2235870]

how come there's only one boy within their group?

[laudamuste]

i think boys will come up with a really different colours than those girls out there

if you happen to hear boys choirs, many of them have distinct color from girls choir of their age

for a reference, vienna boys choir

maybe the conductor doesn't like boys' color too much

(sorry for the wrong grammar)

[tonyhawk2235870]

what??im not asking about their colors,im just wondering how come a boy is in the group.....i know there's a boys choir,where all boys are trebels...im not that stupid

[laudamuste]

oh sorry, i think i didn't get your question right...

i meant that maybe the music director do not like boy's color

that's why there is "only one boy", not as many as the other choir

it refers to the conductor's style and preferences

in simple, the conductor likes to have girls' voice instead of boys'

am i wrong, again ?

sorry if i do

[bmcat001]

@laudamuste

I see 3 boys in this choir,I guess it is not because the conductor don't like boy' voice,maybe it is because in some country(culture) singing is considered a girl's thing ,while boys may more prefer to sport activity~

In Taiwan ,I see most children choir girls are the same more outnumbered boys for cultural reasons~

[23ym]

Who composed this piece????????????

[kuangchien]

Rachmaninoff

[naldos2003]

OMG!!!!!!!! beautiful!!!

[laudamuste]

wow... the difficulty of the songs they sang are crazy...

[89thirdcreed]

You've all done such a wonderful job. The sound is very mature. Some of the singers look quite young, but I would never guess that from an audio recording. Very beautiful. I've listened to this performance many times already, plan to many more times. Good work.

[jts201]

Soo beautiful.

[karenjamesw]

Beautiful!!!  no other comment needed.

[Lana0705]

I sing in this chorus, so it is very pleasant to me to hear and to read all those positive comentaries, what you all write for us here! Thanks you very mutch!!!!I realy love you!!!

[uberathlete]

You mix the Vesna choir and the Philippine Madrigal singers and that's as close to perfection as you can get.

[jts201]

beautiful.

[CantemusHungary]

What I am trying to say that it is nearly impossible to compare children with adults, a 20 membered chamber choir with a 55 membered huge mixed choir...music is a mission and we are for to make the world better. Competitions are not worth arguments :-)

[theproudflip]

CantemusHungary, I guess the judges set fair criteria between children and adult choirs, like, degree of difficulty in relation to their age. Still, children choirs have chances to beat the adult ones if they have sung relatively difficult pieces perfectly.

A good example is that when your group won as champion in the Musica Sacra category of the 2002 Busan Choir Olympics and you beat several adult choirs, including our group. c",)

[theproudflip]

Repertoire is another factor. If the group presented a variety and non-monotonous list of songs, then it may have chances of winning.

[CantemusHungary]

Last year we participated with our children's Choir (CANTEMUS) in Tolosa at the EGP and were beaten by casting vote by an american mixed choir. This year we put out our best by our mixed choir (CANTEMUS) at the EGP and again did not win. However our girls choir already won an EGP in 1996.

[CantemusHungary]

Taking part in a European Grand Prix competition is already a reward. All choirs were at an extremely high artistic level.

[uberathlete]

To me the Vesna choir was the toughest challenge for the Philippine Madrigal singers. How can you compete against angelic voices like these? Put MADZ and Vesna together and boy that would be like music in Heaven.

[joelrianopunay]

many times i listened to this piece, i alway had goosebumps...really beautiful..heavenly...what else can i can say...they are really good... they are one of the children's choir i look up to... like the vienna children's choir... they performed so good. Although, our very own MADz undeniably won the EGP2007, yet the vesna also deserves an applause and standing ovation for the very oustanding performance...

[Lezienna]

they have sopranist and contralto? great! ^_^

[i9l2y1m8a8t3]

My GOODNESS! amazing sound! this children's choir does'nt sound like a children's choir! Vert flawless! Angelic voices! so wonderful! nope you could also visit manila someday! Vcyevo dobrava!

[lepton03]

i guess the judges went for the overall performance, methinks all the choirs had good technical skills, seems flawless, guess the hearts won for the madz...

[rubenchohhhh]

beautifull the sound is the best childrens choir congratulations

[naldos2003]

To all those choir who participate in EGP i salute you!

You are all champions! indeed! congratulations

[naldos2003]

beautiful! Peace out tayo! hehe un nga lang nasa history na ang Madz buti i know na mahirap na competitor sila!both madz and this russian choir ang nanalo sa Floriege yun nga lang grand prix again ang madz kaya history never repeats itself! MILESTONE NA ANG MADZ! thanks for uploading this competition kuanchien!

A HEART SHAPED BY MUSIC OF MADZ!

[ianbedloe]

Pristine and beautiful....

[erciasico]

this choir sounded so good! like angels... however, philippine madrigal singers is the best! it is a very tough competition. i'm very glad they won the second time besting this russian choir. i am proud to be a filipino.

[privateeyewhite]

Ang yabang mo! gawin mo lang sa mga pilipino 'wag sa ibang lahi. Kakahiya ka pinapakita mo lang sa buong mundo ang pagka utak alimasag. Pakunwari ka pa sa rhetoric mo, sa pilipino din pala ang papuri. Pakumbaba ka!

[leugimgil]

puso mo baka ma atake ka.

ano ba ang point mo kasi di ko maintindihan yang galit mo.

erciasico was just pointing out that this choir sounded good and sounded like angels but he's more proud of our very own philippine madz and he's glad that madz won.

whats with the alimasag thing?

peace.

[erciasico]

thanks for the comment leugimgil, the person who responded did not get what i'm trying to point out and doesn't know what the story behind it.

[erciasico]

hahaha... cool down man! you do not know the story behind this prestigious competition. these kids still amazes me and are really great. and to think that they are still young yet with that great voice. wow! these kids and other 4 participating countries are already champions! they competed for their second EGP like the madz. unluckily, the judges preferred for the philippine choir to win, which makes me more proud of course.

[kuangchien]

You should know this choir won the EGP in 2000. All the girls cried out when they heard Madz won the EGP. They rehearsal everyday for two or three hours. And we Taipei Chamber Singers only rehearsal once a week in Sunday night for two hours.

[SingersFather]

kuangchien, please don't talk about things you don't know about. Vesna choir has reheasels only twice a week. The rest of time children have piano and other lessons but not choir singing.

[fjuvche]

I think, girls cryed, because they'd very tired and impressed. Don't forget: they are only children. And I agree with SingerFather: children has reheasels only twice a week. And you are all adult people, and Vesna - all are the children. I song in Vesna many years ago and I worked in Vesna for 8 years, I know what I say about.

[PrincessMe1993]

they are amazing anyway :)

[fjuvche]

They are 10 - 16 years old as usual.

[alinaglepta]

Actually you just don't know what you're talking about. Everyday for 2 or 3 hours? are you kiddin'? they are pupils and 're busy with their homework. they are not professionals but only children who study in music school and sing time to time/

[Profconductores]

@privateeyewhite what a moronic statement. oh come on you don’t even have a patent for the word “idiot” which you don’t know squat about. I bet you don’t even know the etymology of the word “idiot”.

[Profconductores]

@privateeyewhite obviously, you have a problem respecting other people’s prerogative just because it runs contrary to yours. in a way you’re exercising your being a supremacist that others are below your standards. Ikaw ang mas nakakahiya.
