Postcards

Postcards

Our new project – POSTCARDS – is now live!

In our travels we have amassed a wonderful collection of folksongs and popular songs from numerous countries, many of which we use as encores when we visit. As we are constantly discovering new cultures and music in the places that we visit, we wanted to share some of these beautiful songs with you in one album. Our recording of a beautiful folksong from New Zealand, Pokarekare Ana, is now available on iTunes, the Australian song Botany Bay will be available on iTunes from 3 July and the full album will be available to download on 12 July and released in CD format in October of this year.

Collating these musical treasures from around the world got us thinking about the many memories that we all have and how lovely it would be to share them with each other. We have created a new website – Postcards – through which we can all upload images or videos related in some way to music (a favourite song from childhood, a building or landscape that holds a special memory, snapshots from a performance of a new choir or a song your grandmother used to sing to you). We have posted some already and would love you to consider doing the same.

This calendar year has already seen us visit Hungary, the US, Canada, Germany, Poland, England & Scotland, Taiwan, China, South Korea, Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand. Before we break for summer we will sing in Latvia, Italy, France, England and Germany.

We look forward to seeing your Postcards soon!
