They started their training in April 2000 by Taize Songs. From October 2000 performed at various occasions and at the end of 2001 extended their repertoire by Negro Spirituals.
The aim of the group Geshem is to inspire hearts and souls of individuals to express their inward selves spiritually and harmoniously. It pleasantly and smoothly provokes balanced music. Our subject is the receptive singing body, using all vocal-acoustic elements. Every singer is essential part of the choir not only for the purpose of music expression but also for its desire, enthusiasm and ability to share.
Why Geshem
Geshem means rain. Rain brings humidity, the basic presumption of life, but it may also become
unpleasant sleet at the end of November. Rain helps plants to grow and gives water to wells, rivers
and oceans. Rain may change into the destructive hail, storm and flood. Rain may reflect the
rainbow, the sign of the Covenant but also may destroy by its downpour everything, even human
life. Rain falls down to all people without difference.
Geshem is vocal group. It wants to be all good what the rain brings to thirsty hearts and souls,
attentive ears. It wants to bring joy, pleasure, encouragement, it wants to awake hope and enhance it.
