St Paul's Collegiate School - Hamilton

Choir performing at Cadenza

Korimako (Silver Medal) at Cadenza

St Paul's Collegiate School - August 28, 2024

Our Chamber Choir earned the Korimako (Silver Medal) after competing against 12 other North Island schools at Cadenza. Cadenza is an exciting competition with the extra dimension of massed workshops, featuring an internationally-recognised choral specialist who also acts as an adjudicator.

The event was held at the Sir Howard Morrison Centre in Rotorua. The choir performed four items:

  • Es ist ein Ros entsprugen by A Richie

  • A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square by Kirby Shaw

  • Ta Na Solbici by Samo Vovk

  • Oculi Omnium by C. Wood

Special thanks to Ian Campbell (vocal coach), Jack Walters (pianist), and all the teachers who supported this journey.
