So it’s very small and it depends a lot on the individual singers.” The small size means that the group presents a different aesthetic feel from other choirs, due to the confluence of artistic vision from each member rather than one director. “You each have input into the things that you’re singing. You can react to each other a lot better when there’s so few of you,” says de Bakker. Another element that...
