For a hundred years now, the voices of the ACM have been heard at concerts, church services, celebrations and commemorations in Apeldoorn and beyond. The Apeldoorn Christian Men\u2019s Choir was founded on 4 May 1926. Seven men laid the foundations for an association that, a century later, is still active. Over the years, the repertoire has expanded from sacred music to include opera, operetta, musicals, spirituals and folk music, amongst other genres.<\/p>\n<p>The ACM is therefore not only a choir, but also an established fixture within Apeldoorn\u2019s community life. Generations of members have dedicated themselves to the association and to its many performances and activities. The Royal Medal of Honour is a token of appreciation for that long-standing commitment and significance, and is intended for everyone who has been involved with the choir over the past hundred years: members, board members, conductors, volunteers and others involved.<\/p>\n<p>A century ago, the first note was struck. A century later, it still resonates. The Royal Medal of Honour marks a special recognition of a century of music, commitment and the strength of the association.<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n<div data-acfblock=\"Lijstblok-type-1\" class=\"section section--grey\">\r\n  <div class=\"container\">\r\n    <div class=\"row justify-content-center\">\r\n      <div class=\"col-12 col-lg-11 elementOnTop\">\r\n        <div class=\"editor__content-block editor__white-content-block\">\r\n<div class=\"editor\">\r\n<h2>The Royal Medal of Honour<\/h2>\r\n<p>The Royal Medal of Honour is a special token of the King\u2019s appreciation for associations, foundations and institutions that have demonstrated exceptional significance over many years.
