The Prime Note Ensemble has established itself as the first Filipino a cappella choir from Saudi Arabia, founded by Medard U. Obida in October 2001. Members enjoy the opportunity to rehearse & perform under the professional tutelage of its choirmaster and resident arranger Novem G. Cabios.
The choir has already
competed in two World Choir Games, one in China in 2006 and the other in
Austria in 208, where it won bronze & silver medals in the male chamber
choir category. The group has traveled to Nancy, France on
invitation, in one of France’s major choral festival, the 14th Festival
International Chant de Choral held in May 2007. On tour in Europe,
the choir performed to much acclaim in France, Belgium and Austria.
Prime Note participated in the 2nd California Choral Festival &
Competition in June 2009 in San Luis Obispo and continues to have a
series of performances in and around Southern California, which the
group now calls home.
PRIME NOTE will be at the Los Angeles Harmony Sweepstake A Cappella Festival on April 9, 2011 and also in competition at the American International Choral Festival in Reno-Tahoe from May 4 - 8, 2011!
