Singing in Kroon van Wonders has been a deeply spiritual and transformative experience. Each rehearsal felt like an encounter with the divine, with Franco guiding us through music that touches both heart and soul. From the emotional depth of “Vrou, waarom ween jy?” to the symbolic richness of Peter’s threefold response, every moment carried profound meaning. This oratorio has become a sacred milestone in my musical and faith journey.
