点评:This was my 3rd time performing with DCINY in 2 years. Each time has been a beautiful memory in its own unique way. My 1st time in 2023 I was there with my choir and with my daughter at Carnegie Hall and I knew I’d be back. Along came 2024 and I had the opportunity to be involved in a world premiere at Lincoln Center. Again, was an incredible experience, first time in the city on my own, it was spring, weather was gorgeous, so much excitement etc. DCINY is so organized, so professional, but hey…you gotta do your homework because like most things there are levels. You CAN do this. I performed in the opening performance and enjoyed seeing and hearing the sound of David Geffen Hall as we enjoyed the headline performance.
A couple months before the 2024 performance I had learned that there was a North American premiere scheduled for 2025. Of course I wanted to be a part of it. What seemed like overnight I was consumed again by not the final act but the opening one. Jenkins’ Gloria I’m sure I listened to 1000 times in preparation. What an absolute joy to perform. Did I mention that Jonathan, Iris, and the entire DCINY team are there to strengthen, support and challenge you to be at your best? Another incredible performance and a soldout show at Carnegie Hall.
I should mention that during the rehearsals for the aforementioned One World show at Fordham University, Sir Karl Jenkins was taking questions from choristers and Jonathan Griffith said that his personal favourite was Stabat Mater. I thought to myself,”he’s probably just saying that because that’s the show for 2026.” And then I listened and I 💯 percent agree. I ordered my music and can’t control my excitement exclaiming, ‘Stabat Mater Dolorosa!!’, driving my spouse crazy haha. Come be a part of DCINY in 2026, so many great shows ahead. Choose what’s right for you and your choir or come as a solo performer, you will not be disappointed. Check the calendar and stay tuned!🎶
翻译:这是我两年内第三次与DCINY合作演出。每一次演出都以独特的方式成为一段美好的回忆。2023年,我第一次和合唱团还有女儿一起在卡内基音乐厅演出,我知道我一定会回来的。2024年,我有机会参与林肯中心的世界首演。这又是一次不可思议的经历,我第一次独自来到这座城市,当时正是春天,天气晴朗,一切都令人兴奋不已。DCINY组织严密,非常专业,但是……你得做好功课,因为大多数事情都有等级之分。你能做到的。我参加了开幕式,在欣赏领衔演出的同时,也欣赏了大卫·格芬音乐厅的美妙音乐。
在2024年演出的几个月前,我得知2025年将举行北美首演。我当然想参与其中。仿佛一夜之间,我再次被开幕式而非最终幕所吸引。我肯定在准备阶段听了詹金斯的《荣耀颂》一千遍。能表演真是太开心了。我有没有提到乔纳森、艾瑞斯和整个DCINY团队都会在场,鼓励、支持你,并挑战你,让你发挥出最佳水平?卡内基音乐厅又一次演出精彩绝伦,门票售罄。
值得一提的是,在福特汉姆大学排练之前,卡尔·詹金斯爵士在回答合唱团成员的提问时,乔纳森·格里菲斯说他个人最喜欢的是《圣母悼歌》。我心想:“他这么说可能只是因为那是2026年的演出。” 然后我听了之后,我💯百分之百同意。我订购了音乐,控制不住自己的兴奋,大喊:“《圣母悼歌》!!” 快来加入2026年的DCINY吧,精彩的演出还在等着我呢,哈哈。选择适合你和你合唱团的节目,或者以独唱形式来参加,你一定不会失望。查看日历,敬请期待!🎶
