WELCOME TO VERSES MUSIC ENSEMBLES' BLOGSITE

This blog archives some of the past performances that we have provided to our clients. You will find photos as well as live video/audio recordings taken during some of our previous performances in this blog. *Instrumental live clips are only available upon request.

We hope to impress our clients with these unaltered recordings and it serves as proof of the musical quality that we can provide. (Please note that the actual live performances would sound even better as these simple recordings tend to agment background noise).

21 Dec @ The Curve

2008-12-21T17:51:00.000-08:00

- The killer outdoor set -

It was good mood and very sporting audience that came up to took pictures. after one started to came up to take pics, the rest just stream in.. it was fun and enjoyable... though we were sweating quite bad due to energy for projection as well as the heat.

20 Dec @ Time square

2008-12-21T00:25:00.000-08:00

Appreciative crowd that cheered and requests for songs as well as singing a long... it was a response that was not anticipated. Overall a pleasant session.

2008-12-14T07:50:00.000-08:00

Merry Christmas in Berjaya Time Square

2008-12-08T22:05:00.000-08:00

A very WARM christmas greeting to all!

the nice and cute stage

VerSeS in action (very hot spot light!)

Comments: 1 singer down with sinusitis, tonsilitis and conjunctivitis. Amplification was not balanced, hardly hear the men. Only soprano amplification was sufficient. Spot light was very hot too, generally a 'hot' and sweating scene on stage ;p

Do A little for Charity - World Vision Msia

2008-12-02T20:52:00.000-08:00

Genre: Carols
Formation: Quan, Sct, Luke, Will
Comments: The session started slightly earlier and the traffice was extremely bad. We had to go on with STBB formation as the altos and Sop2 are yet to arrived.

Genre: Sacred
Formation: Quan, She, YM, YK, Sct, Luke, Will
Comments: It was the first time Sop2 and Bass1 sang with the whole team, basically first time with the full team in place, due to scheduling issues. We took the opportunity to test it out. It was a little to cautious with a lot of uncertainty in the voice. Ending bits was blurry as we didnt quite know where to stop, together. Would have been better if we up the key by a semi-tone or a tone.

PJ Hilton

2008-11-26T22:57:00.000-08:00

A night of beautiful and elegant music to accompany a classy event. Flute was simply beautiful and balanced well by the strings.

Now is the time for Wedding

2008-11-17T06:10:00.000-08:00

Comments: surprisingly, the micing was much better than anticipated. relaxed evening with a string of songs

25 Dec, Aliyaa

2007-12-29T10:49:00.001-08:00

A day time performance along side with the trio. In general more upbeat and light& easy repertoire. Some Jazz numbers too.

Nice setting, nice mood and nice place with nice people. It was nice.

24 Dec, The Courtyard Garden

2007-12-29T10:37:00.001-08:00

A nice night performance along with the trio. Mainly Carols and love songs for the dining guests.

Mainly open air with roof, so the whole night was performed without amplification. Acapella carols were lil soft as one of our sop was down with cough. Acapella contemporary was much better and well received by dining guests.

22 Dec, Lafite Shangri-La

2007-12-29T10:28:00.001-08:00

Another night of private show along with the strings. Performed mainly classical repertoire as the client is well verse with classical repertoire (good taste too if i may add) and selective with the piece we perform regardless of instrumental, accompanied choral or acapella voice.

It was a nice night with appreciative crowd especially for the vocal ensemble. Clients were very happy with our delivery. Job delivered. Kudos to the strings for churning out quite a number of pieces required by the client.

All venues required natural voice singing and projection, some areas are quite carpeted thus it was tiring but we managed to deliver.

Managed to capture audience and harvest quite a bit of applause and client reps were impressed. Starting from the very simple traditional O Christmas Tree to the Contemporary Have yourself a merry little christmas, it was a pleasure to perform for appreciative crowd that keep quite to listen to you and applauded at the end of each song.

Very hot day indeed though we looked as though it's nice and chilly (the sacrifices we do for art :p)

There was last minute changed of the venue so the amplification was not properly changed due to time and space constraint. Sang with amplification but the balance was probably slightly off.

Singers were a lil tired due to the marathon the night before and the hot humid weather since we were singing outdoors, not under canopy.

Would grade it pass, as we managed to grab attention from the people around and managed to harvest applause after every song.

Last Minute being informed to sing at centre side, mics not properly done, as good as no mics.

Crowd was good as the people were already filled with anticipation of christmas.

Energy level was good initially but the singing was draining cos singers tried to project. Sets were long. It was generally fun with quite some frens coming to support and take videos.

Tonal color was so so, placement a lil low as singers tried to push for volume. Pitch was not too bad. Most songs was ok except maybe snowman. Delivered a sight read piece that was given just an hour before show, wont tell which piece :p

Mood was nice but all were tired.

12 and 13 Dec The Sun "tell it as it is" conference

2007-12-29T01:00:00.000-08:00

Only the Strings were involved for this occasion, a two day communication forum with the clients of The Sun at Hilton KL.

Strings were minimally amplified and the amplification was very well done, a good blend of natural sound and the speakers' projection. Presentation was well received by our client, The Sun.
