Comments on: Delightful singing by combined Wainuiomata and Capital choirs in Catholic cathedral https://middle-c.org/2017/08/delightful-singing-by-combined-wainuiomata-and-capital-choirs-in-catholic-cathedral/ Classical Music Reviews, Wellington, New Zealand Tue, 29 Aug 2017 21:00:31 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.1.4 By: Sue Robinson https://middle-c.org/2017/08/delightful-singing-by-combined-wainuiomata-and-capital-choirs-in-catholic-cathedral/comment-page-1/#comment-694179 Tue, 29 Aug 2017 21:00:31 +0000 https://middle-c.org/?p=12949#comment-694179 Thanks for this review. A few things are incorrect however. Rhys Cocker did not sing with choral accompaniment at all- the Crucifixus etiam pro nobis is for bass solo. The solo with chorus was Et incarnatus est with Jamie Young. The Agnus Dei is a duet with Jamie Young, Rhys Cocker and chorus. We are lucky enough also to have Rhys singing as a member of Capital Choir and also, in this performance, of Wainuiomata Choir. He adds a great deal as a choral singer but of course is not required to project above other choral singers and should not be reviewed as a soloist when singing as part of a choir, as in Sure on this shining night.

Wainuiomata Choir had brand new green, white and black patterned scarves and ties. They will be disappointed you didn’t notice!
