The National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University Faculty and Staff Chorus is honored to present once again this special concert for teachers, students, and alumni: “Harmonizing Together II —Singing as One II.” This musical extravaganza will take place at the Grand Auditorium on the Yang Ming campus. The choral melodies will resonate, fostering a sense of community and unity within the university campus. This year, we are delighted to invite the mentors from the Shen Nong Slope Singing Society to join us in celebrating significant moments at Yang Ming!
Established in 1981, our university’s Faculty and Staff Chorus brings together educators from diverse academic backgrounds and professional fields, guided by alumni from the Institute of Music. Music Director Ms. Wang Yu-hsin, a renowned soprano in Taiwan, has been directing our chorus for over a decade since 2006. In the past three years, our chorus has performed at the National Theater and Concert Hall, the Yang Ming Chiao Tung University Arts Festival; organized Taiwan’s first-ever virtual choir performance synchronized with pandemic precautions, published in academic journals; performed the collaborative annual commemorative song “Beyond” with outside professional orchestras; and jointly performed with professional orchestras and Chinese traditional music ensembles, achieving remarkable success.
The concert program will be divided into two parts. In the first half, the chorus will perform a series of classic choral works, immersing the audience in beautiful harmonies, showcasing the artistic excellence of choral music. The second half will present a friendly style, covering folk songs, pop music, and original compositions, demonstrating our chorus’s innovation and experimental spirit in music. Together, we will bring an afternoon filled with emotions and melodious tunes for teachers, students, alumni, and community members. You will enjoy a diverse repertoire, including classical masterpieces, folk songs, pop music, and teacher compositions. The selection of these pieces fully demonstrates the diversity and talent of our members beyond their research and teaching.
In the “Harmonizing Together II” concert, the Faculty and Staff Chorus will convey love and care through the charm of song, making the campus a warmer, more harmonious community. We sincerely invite you to join our musical feast. Please bring your family and friends to enjoy this journey of music filled with love and warmth.
