Your choir has made me so happy, during covid and up till now. Your sound is so lovely Lively special nort & south connected in the most perfect hamony. In het Donker stole my heart and makes me cry everytime. Als de Here my kom soek nie, zegt alles. The tree you sing of in the soms i Don t know but i long to see it since. Your conductor is the best ever. Coming from 2 singing families and having the van de Merwe name in familytree it makes me wonder if singing is also hereditary beside human. Whatever makes you as choir and conductor reach this soultouching sound, it is love and precious. So happy so many beautiful singers lift us up, help us live and make us happy and feel belonging to earth and eachother. Thank you so very much. From the Netherlands
