History [link]
Li-Ron Choir was established in 1980 at the Gordon School in Herzliya by Ronit Shapira.[1] The choir represents Herzliya both locally and abroad.[2] The choir is composed of three groups: children between the ages of 6-11, teenagers from 12-18 and a vocal ensemble.[3]
Participation in the choir has several goals: developing listening skills, honing the ability to process musical content and promoting tolerance and empathy. [4]
Many Israeli composers, among them Sara Shoham, Andre Hajdu, Menachem Wiesenberg, Ovadia Tuvia, Moshe Rasiuk, Mary Even-or and Moshe Zorman, have written special choral works for the choir. Li-Ron performed the Yiddish song Oyf 'n Pripetshok for the sound track of Shindler's List.[5]

Choir
A choir (/ˈkwaɪ.ər/) (also known as a chorale or chorus) is a musical ensemble of singers. Choral music, in turn, is the music written specifically for such an ensemble to perform. Choirs may perform music from the classical music repertoire, which spans from the Medieval era to the 2010s, and/or popular music repertoire. Most choirs are led by a conductor, who leads the performances with arm and face gestures.
A body of singers who perform together as a group is called a choir or chorus. The former term is very often applied to groups affiliated with a church (whether or not they actually occupy the choir) and the second to groups that perform in theatres or concert halls, but this distinction is far from rigid. Choirs may sing without instrumental accompaniment, with the accompaniment of a piano or pipe organ, with a small ensemble (e.g., harpsichord, cello and double bass for a Baroque era piece), or with a full orchestra of 70-100 musicians.
The term "Choir" has the secondary definition of a subset of an ensemble; thus one speaks of the "woodwind choir" of an orchestra, or different "choirs" of voices and/or instruments in a polychoral composition. In typical 18th- to 21st-century oratorios and masses, chorus or choir is usually understood to imply more than one singer per part, in contrast to the quartet of soloists also featured in these works.

List of The King of Fighters characters
The King of Fighters fighting game series, produced by SNK Playmore, includes a wide cast of characters, some of which are taken from other SNK games. The story takes place in a fictional universe in which an annual series of 3-on-3 or 4-on-4 fighting tournaments are held.
The first game in the series introduces the initial main character of the series, Kyo Kusanagi, a young Japanese fighter who is the heir to a powerful group of martial artists having pyrokinetic abilities. Kyo fights against the Kusanagi clan's enemies, his rival Iori Yagami, and the god Orochi and its human followers, among others. The first four games in the series revolve about these fights, while The King of Fighters '99 introduces a new story arc, revolving around K′, a young man who seeks to destroy the mysterious NESTS organization because they kidnapped him at an early age and stripped him of his past memories, so that they could force him to be a fighter under their control. In The King of Fighters 2003, a new character named Ash Crimson enters the tournament, to steal the powers of the clans who sealed the Orochi in the past for an unknown reason. A new group of antagonists, known as Those From the Past, also appears in the series; they want to obtain Orochi's power for the purpose of giving it to their unknown master.

Once I Was A Bird
by: Lauren SheraTake off your tattered wings,
I am coming home.
Let me begin to explain
Why it's been so long.
I got stuck in the clouds,
Tangled up in a shroud.
Waiting for the stillness to break
And your voice to take it's place.
Saying please, saying stay,
Saying where will you go anyway.
Once I was a bird,
You were the sky on every side
And I, I tried not to look down
So scared of the ground was I.
And when I fell down to the ground,
Saw you were nowhere to be found.
And I called loud your name,
But it did not sound the same.
So where have I been,
I have been lost in the wind.
And you, now you are free
Of the chains that bound you to me.
Once I was a bird,
You were the sky on every side
And I, I tried not to look down
So scared of the ground was I.
I was a bird,
You were the sky on every side
And I, I tried not to look down
