Lovely, lively singing last week I thought. Bravo! We’ll be meeting again this coming Wednesday of course, again at St Peter’s and at our usual time of 7.15 for 7.30. We plan to sing: Listen, Evo Banke* and Haere Mai* (all held over from last week), continue A Bumper of Good Liquor (with words by Sheridan whatever Karen would have us believe!), recap Go Placidly* and California Dreamin'* and have a look at Walk a Mile in My Shoes and Be Still My Soul. As ever, something for everyone we hope. Words of Be Still and Bumper are attached to this newsletter. Those marked * were in last week’s newsletter. No words are needed for the other songs. Although Julia will have some sets of words with her, please do print them out yourselves if you possibly can.
As well as the usual protocols of face masks, social distancing and hand sanitizing, we would really appreciate it if you were to take a lateral flow test at some point on the day as a precautionary measure and, of course, not come at all if you are ill or know you should self-isolate. And don’t forget blankets, hot water bottles and thermos flasks all add to the fun.
If you’ve been a regular over the last few months you will be aware that numbers have fallen – hopefully temporarily. If you know someone in the choir whose attendance has lapsed do give them a ring and encourage them to come along on Wednesday if they feel that the time is right. Despite the cold, St Peter’s is a lovely place to sing in and, of course, the uplift you get from making music in a group is pretty hard to beat.
