SJB Chorale

St. John Bosco Chorale

 

Denninger's was extremely pleased to have the St. John Bosco Chorale from the Philippines at our Upper James location on Sunday November 9, 2008.

The St. John Bosco (SJB) Chorale was formed at the St. John Bosco Parish in Makati, Philippines in November of 2000. It was created to be the grand choir which united members from different choirs in the Parish to sing together under the guidance of conductor, Mr. Lester Delgado. The group performed on concert tours in Hong Kong in 2004 and 2005 as well as in Europe (Germany, Belgium and Austria) last May to June 2007 as missionaries to share their music with fellow Filipinos as well as foreign audiences to represent the country and showcase the musical talent of the Filipino people. Their repertoire consisted of classical/sacred music, international songs (contemporary/popular/spirituals) as well as Filipino music Kundiman/Folk/Traditional/Popular). Karen dela Luna, daughter of former Hamiltonian Benny and Grace dela Luna is one of the members of the chorale. The Chorale group will arrived in Hamilton, Ontario Oct 17, 2008 and will return to the Philippines November 19, 2008.
