Chr. Gemengd koor ‘Sursum Corda’ Middelburg
More than 55 times played this month
The Christian mixed choir "Harpe Davids" (based on the Reformed Church in Hardinxveld-Giessendam) was founded in 1985 with a very limited number of enthusiastic people, who met weekly to sing psalms and spiritual songs around the harmonium. The goal was to be able to sing unknown psalms better and thus support the church in singing together on Sunday. These "pioneers" could never have imagined that this initiative would grow into a medium-sized mixed choir (55 members). This CD/MC is already the third recording that has been released. "Harpe Davids" is characterized by the large group of young people it has in its midst.
The choir rehearses weekly under the direction of Frans Cornet, who has conducted the choir with great enthusiasm and professionalism since 1988. Three to four times a year the contact magazine "Harphonden" is published, which keeps members and donors informed about the current affairs of the choir "Harpe Davids". The board and members hope that this cd/mc, filled with very varied music (styles), will find its way to a wide audience to expand God's Kingdom, just like the previous one.
