HISTORY OF EXULTATE CHOIR

The idea of establishing Exultate Choir came from two church music activists: the late Mrs. A.K. Radjino and Mrs. Maria Djafar. In August 1994 they formed Exultate. At first the idea was making a singing group or vocal group for the family. They used the choir as a medium for meeting, sharing, gathering relatives and families. Later some people outside the family joined Exultate. After several months, Exultate was recognized as one of choirs in the Cathedral that could serve in liturgical ceremonies such as the Eucharist and other sacrament services.

EXULTATE'S ACTIVITIES

1. Regular practices: Since 1996 Exultate has practiced regularly, which is on Saturdays at 19.00-21.00 at the Cathedral. Since July 2008 the practice is conducted every Saturday at 18.30-20.00.

2. Singing at church: Every month Seksi Liturgi Paroki Katedral asks Exultate to serve in church services according to the schedule. So far Exultate has tried to do its best. Sometimes Exultate sings more than once in one month. Even during Christmas weeks or Holy Weeks, Exultate sometimes sings three or four times at the Cathedral. Besides, Exultate also sings in other churches such as St Fransiskus Sukasari, which puts Exultate on their schedule every other months and at St. Yakobus Rasul Church in Megamendung.

3. Anniversary: Exultate celebrates its anniversary on 15 August.

4. Christmas and Easter celebrations: On these days Exultate usually organises gatherings. We usually use Ibu Wanty's house in Jalan Merak Bogor to get together.

5. Visiting its members : Exultate is a big family whose members want to pay attention to and help others. If there is a member who suffers from diseases, other members will feel the pain... so we visit the sick members or the members who need our help.

6. Ambulare : Ambulare means "to walk". We go out together (to Puncak, Lembang, Megamendung, Rancamaya, etc.)

GREAT PEOPLE & CONTRIBUTORS

1. Ibu A.K. Radjino : She was the co-founder of Exultate. With the support from Bapak Dr. Radjino, she dedicated most of her rest of her life for Exultate. I do not know much about her as I joined Exultate about a year after her demise. But I still remember when she organized a choir festival at Regina Pacis Hall in 1997. The festival was called Festival Lagu-lagu Perjuangan. I was the new conductor of St. Andreas Bogor Barat Choir at that time. I also joined a seminar that Ibu Radjino organized, in which Mr Petrus Purba was invited. Ibu A.K. Radjino passed away in peace because of brain tumor in 1997. In heaven, I believe, she always prays for Exultate that she has ever established and taken care of.

2. Ibu Maria Djafar : Together with Ibu Radjino, Ibu Maria Djafar was an ardent founder of Exultate. She was the organist. I lost her when she decided to quit from Exultate in 2003. She is an expert of ethnical music arrangement. She can not sing but her music taste is very strong. She has got abundant ideas about liturgical and ethnic music. I learned a lot from her.

3. Bapak Agustinus Untoro Wisnu: After Ibu Radjino’s demise, Bapak Untoro took over her position as the trainer and chairman of Exultate. Bapak Untoro tried his best for Exultate. His brilliant ideas sometimes jump beyond everybody’s thought. His mobile job and his intention to be more active in his neighbourhood forced him to leave Exultate.

4. Bapak Josep Susilo Bintoro : He is still active at Exultate. He learned music mostly when he was in the Seminari Menengah Mertoyudan in Magelang-Central Java. He later improved his musical knowledge and skills when he studied at Sanatha Dharma University in Yogyakarta. He continued what Bapak Untoro had started. He is still active in Exultate now and he also leads and trains SMP Budi Mulia Student Choir.

5. Bapak Ignatius Yosep Soewondo: I cried when he told me that he wanted to move to Ganjuran-Yogyakarta in December 2007. He has done great things to me since I met him in St. Andreas Bogor Barat Choir. It was Pak Wondo and Ibu Wondo who first motivated me to join Exultate. When I started to take over Pak Josep Susilo Bintoro as conductor, Pak Wondo often came to my dormitory to discuss many things about choir and many things. He gave me support; he encouraged me to be brave as a conductor; he helped me to select the right songs for church masses. He himself is an artist… he is a sculptor. He loves singing… especially church songs and Javanese songs. He now lives in Ganjuran with Ibu Wondo. He is happy there because he is among a lot of people that he knows best. I always miss them and I always pray for them.

QUI BENE CANTAT BIS ORAT

"Qui bene cantat bis orat" means "the one who sings well prays twice". If you want to pray more seriously, you must sing, but sing the songs well. If you sing badly, you even will not pray... you will make your "words of prayers" useless. Since "singing well" means "praying twice", you must always try to sing well. How to sing well when our voice cannot produce good melody? Hmmm... "singing well" actually means "singing with your heart... singing with your soul". When we sing with our whole heart, Heaven will be decorated with beautiful flowers of joy... and God smiles at us. So, let's sing well... with our sincere heart. Ad maiorem Dei gloriam.
