Wings

The group was established in March 2009 by friends who used to sing together in high school. Currently, we have members of all ages, from college students to adults, from within and outside of the prefecture, and we are working together to create wonderful music, in a friendly atmosphere, and with great care to prevent infectious diseases. We have sung many category pieces such as from Renaissance to modern classics, domestic choral, jazz and pops and performed in competitions both within and outside of the prefecture, choral festivals, joint concerts, hotel Christmas concerts, community center events, CD recordings. They also enjoy performing ensembles on numerous stages, including performances of Monteverdi works with ancient instruments such as the lute and viola da gamba. They have won many prizes, including the Gold Prize in the General Section of the Saitama Chorus Contest, the Silver Prize in the General Section of the Kanto Chorus Contest, the Gold Prize in the Saitama Vocal Ensemble Contest, the Silver Prize in the Kanto Vocal Ensemble Contest, and the Third Prize in the National "Bride Doll" Chorus Contest.
