Hail Mary the Queen Children's Choir

Pater Noster by Alejandro Consolacion Hail Mary the Queen Children's Choir, Philippines Maria Theresa Vizconde-Roldan, conductor SOTA Concert Hall, Singapore

Conceived in November 2012, this piece was intended for the composerÂ?s liturgy of the mass. The composition challenges young singers to shape long phrases with rich tone colors. The composer dedicates this work to the Hail Mary the Queen ChildrenÂ?s Choir especially to their mentors MaÂ?am Tikya and Sir Jude for years of making wonderful music together.

Premiered at the 2015 Pacific International Choral Festival at the Hult Performing Center in Eugene Oregon, this piece is a fusion of Western and Eastern musical traditions to carry out the theme of the festival, "East Meets West". The vocal parts represent the West and the instrumental accompaniment represents the East.
