The Year 2012
What a busy year it has been! It started full swing with rehearsals for Animae Gospel Choir in Concert ’12 which happened in March. The summer was spent rehearsing for Strummin’ Tribute To The Greats & VOICES – Dream A Little Dream, held in September & October respectively. After VOICES, I joined the Goldberg Ensemble, to prepare material for the Valletta International Baroque Festival 2013. In the mean time, rehearsals were on for Animae Gospel Choir’s Christmas concerts, A Holy Night with Animae. Wish you all a happy new year!
