Voci Vivace: Lively Singing, Eclectic Repertoire

With Canticle Singers upcoming choral concert just around the corner, Joanne Poh informs about the rather unconventional offerings which mixes gospel with classical, musicals and pop. She will also be introducing a singer with Asperger Syndrome at the concert, and shares on the work she also does with those on the autism spectrum. Patrick Leong gives a quick history of gospel music in the country and defines the genre in our local context.
