The MGS Choir will be performing a variety of pieces, including "De vitae vanitate" by György Orban, "Mihara yassa bushi" by Ko Matsushita and "Swing Songs" by Veljo Tormis. Given the proximity of SYF (the earliest being 15 Apr 09), they will definitely be performing the pieces which they will choose for adjudication.
