The Moon Represents My Heart月亮代表我的心
A beloved Mandarin pop classic made famous across Asia by Teresa Teng. For VoCo Singers it becomes a warm SATB choral piece where students can learn Chinese text through careful phonetic support, connect language with musical memory, and sing with tenderness and control.
Recorded by
For now, the soprano line was recorded by a Year 7 singer from Northcross Intermediate School. Fiona Li's voice recording is coming in mid-June.
Permission to Dance
BTS released this upbeat English-language song in 2021. For VoCo Singers it gives the massed choir a bright, high-energy item about joy, connection, movement, and the confidence to perform together.
