Victoria Chorale In Song 07 - Wayang Kulit Medley

Victoria Chorale singing Wayang Kulit Medley, conducted by Mr Nelson Kwei, performed at In Song 07 in the Esplanade Concert Hall.

Victoria Chorale was inaugurated in 1988, under the musicianship of Mr Nelson Kwei and has since established itself as one of Singapore's top semi-professional choirs. The choir performs an extensive repertoire ranging from sacred Latin works to contemporary Asian songs. Comprising of alumni members from the Victoria School and Victoria Junior College choirs, the choir has grown from 15 singers to a healthy number of 35 singers to date.

The choir has been active in both the local and international choral scenes, travelling extensively for performances and competitions. They have won numerous awards at various prestigious international competitions from Llangollen in Wales, to Pohlheim in Germany and Bournemouth in England. Victoria Chorale first took part in the Choir Olympics in Linz, Austria and returned in 2006 to the World Choir Games held in Xiamen, China, where they emerged category champions in the Musica Sacra A Capella category.

In February 2009, the choir was invited by J&A Music Corporation to stage Victoria Chorale Concert in Korea 2009 at the Seoul Arts Center which caters to an audience of 2,500. The arts center was built for the sole appreciation of classical music. This marks a milestone for Victoria Chorale as it was their first concert tour in the Asia Pacific region. During the exchange, Victoria Chorale was also privileged to have worked with several renowned international choral conductors in a choral clinic conducted by our own music director, Mr. Nelson Kwei.
