PLEASE BRING A PENCIL OR PEN AND HAVE SOMETHING TO WRITE ON – EVEN IF JUST THE BACK OF YOUR LYRICS!

Welcome to another song-packed evening! 3 rehearsals until the Binks Yard Gig including this one! Let’s wear as much choir merch as possible tonight – we are going to be ordering new T shirts etc soon and it;s good to see what sizes are what on other people.

We’ll have a warm up. We’ll do some tuning. Let’s start with Martha’s Harbour and go over those harmonies again. I might need a few greens to go over and sing the blue/green part….. let’s see what the balance is like please.

While we are on this watery theme, let’s go through Harbour again too please. I will probably focus more on the yellows for this as their part seems trickier to navigate. We are going to DRAW the harmony lines to see if it helps us sing them.

We’ll have a sing through something we know brilliantly. Don’t Shut Me Down!

Let’s have a tea break – could I please see the male voices in the vestibule!

OK, focus song for tonight is Castle on the Hill. We’ll be making a start on the harmonies of this one.

And let’s have a go through She’s Electric again please

And once again, Creep!

Second little break – please may I see the class of 2024 in the vestibule (that’s anyone who has joined us this year.)

Bye Bye chairs then let’s go over some voice work as well as singing some of the songs we’ve already sang tonight… Harbour and Martha’s Harbour to see how they sound in the circle.
