We were previously
known as OLPS Orchestra under Fr. Francis Leong
in April 2005. The orchestra received many interested youths and
adults, from strings, to brass and percussion and aged from 7
right up to 70plus! After 6 months however, with changes in plans,
Fr. Leong could not continue the work of the orchestra.
We then formed a string quartet through 2006. Eventually,
the group evolved into a small ensemble of string, flute and guitar
players. By late 2006 therefore, we decided to rename ourselves
to represent our now small size - to the "OLPS Ensemble".
It was also at that time that we got acquainted with Felix Tie,
a conductor at the Ave Maria Choir, who helped us integrate into
the Mass and church events such as Taize.
It was a godsend. Since then, we have been learning and playing
Taize pieces and grew to love it.
Through
2007 & 2008, the members stuck together playing and
learning various mass and Taize songs. By God's grace,
we have pulled through, playing for Taize events, OLPS
Prayer Meeting and also events like Easter and Christmas!
In 2009 we have had a relaxed year, playing at the OLPS
Lenten Vigil, and occassional Prayer for Vocation session
as well. We also saw new pianists joining us and members
continuing to enjoy coming together to play music.
For 2010, we aim to continue to serve and play great music
in the church of OLPS, also with our friends at the Holy
Family Church GII Choir!
Join us!
we are always in favour of new musicians.
