Concert at Crowne Plaza, Bucharest, May 27th, 2011
MelosTon was invited to sing at Crowne Plaza, for the opening night of the photo exhibition: "An A to Z of Romania through the lenses of expat women". The exhibitors: a group of women tutored by Mihai Constantineanu, professional photographer. It was an interesting experience with a large audience; we met new people, big and generous applause, we felt very good.
Kate, one of the exhibitors, says:
" MelosTon Choral were invited to sing at the opening of the photo exhibition an A to Z journey in Romania Through the Lenses of Expat Women. This exhibition and accompanying book launch was held at the The Crowne Plaza Hotel with 250 guests attending.
The choir performed on two occasions at the event, and their presence really added some class and gravitas to the event. They are very professional singers with a super repertoire of pieces that were a joy to listen too. It was a pleasure for all the exhibitors and guests to listen to them
Good luck at future events!
Best wishes

And it was Serendipity...
On March 25th, a warm welcome in the Serendipity Teashop. A place like home. A wonderful audiences, very generous in applause.
It was a great pleasure and honour to notice in audience two very important opera singers: Mrs Nelly Miricioiu and Ms. Marianne Cornetti ( find an excellent duet here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymMlpffDs9w ). Two strong characters who never showed they had come from another world. They smiled and held close, they gave us precious advice and sang with us, we made friends. It was a unique evening for each member of the choir.
And, as it always happens when we find a piano around, there was a delightful and moving after-party: duets as unusual and unprecedented, well-known old songs – oldies and (forever) goodies.
We express our gratitude to all people who made us feeling the warm-heartedness of the that night. By all means we thank our families for their support. And, of course, special thanks to Alexandra Popovici.

Preparing for a new start...
Christmas carol Yuletide is over but we will not put an end here. So, as we have already agreed, this year we are going further, to give more, to share more, to follow our dreams. This is the reason why MelosTon has started a new period of rehearsals for Secular songs.
On February 19th, 2011, we had the first performance which proved to be a real success – a good reason for MelosTon to follow the happiness of sharing our joy of singing, our love for music and people. The performance was not a mere show, but rather a tryout for each member of the choir to confirm that our way is the right way.
Rehearsals upon rehearsals – a reason for joy, because togetherness is priceless. When an ordinary working day is over, a simple rehearsal set us free from negative thoughts and we forget about all our problems. It is like a fresh breath in a polluted world. And the bond between us is our love for music and people.
