The Tenebrae Choir is a London-based professional vocal ensemble founded and directed by former King's Singer Nigel Short.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://news.byu.edu/archive12-oct-tenebrae.aspx )〕 Co-founded by Short and Barbara Pollock in 2001, its repertoire covers works from the 16th to the 21st Century. The choir was launched in 2001 with a performance of Nigel Short's own composition, ''The Dream of Herod'', created to demonstrate a more "theatrical" style of performing within religious buildings, involving movement around the performance venue as well as dramatic use of lighting and ambiance.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://3choirs.org/biogs/tenebrae/ )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.tenebrae-choir.com/nigel-short )〕 In 2006 it toured Joby Talbot's Path of Miracles to the churches in Spain on the Camino route, and formed an association with the London Symphony Orchestra, making recordings for LSO Live with the conductor Colin Davis. The choir's albums include ''Allegri: Miserere'', which includes choral works ranging from Gregorio Allegri's Miserere to works by Benjamin Britten and John Tavener, released on the Signum Classics label. When Tenebrae toured New York in 2011, the New York Times wrote: "if the group toured here as often as the Tallis Scholars, it could probably match — perhaps even draw on — that ensemble’s considerable following in New York."〔 They have also ventured into more popular genres, performing "So Long, and Thanks for all the Fish" in the film version of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Tenebrae can also be heard on the soundtrack of the film Children of Men. ==Notes== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tenebrae (choir)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
