Christelijk Jongerenkoor Jigdaljahu Barendrecht Tickets
About
Youth choir Jigdaljahu was founded in November 1999. Conductor of the choir is Bert Noteboom.
Between 1999 and 2013, Jigdaljahu was under the inspiring leadership of Willem Arie den Hertog. From 2013 to 2014, the choir was under the expert guidance of Jeroen Bal. The objective of the choir is to sing together psalms, spiritual songs, and classical works in both Dutch and other languages, which are in accordance with the foundation of the choir. An additional goal is to be evangelistic and / or to raise money for charities. For years, the membership has been around 120 young people between the ages of 14 and 30. The meaning of Jigdaljahu is Great is the Lord. The choir also wants to propagate this. With Jigdaljahu it is not about the choir or the singers, but it is about Him who gives the opportunity to be engaged in this way. The choir wants His honor to be and remain the only goal!
Marco den Toom is the regular organist and Lennart Moree the regular pianist. They accompany the choir together or separately during rehearsal evenings and concerts.
