House Rehearsal April 21, 2016

A great House Rehearsal yesterday evening in East Ship Harbour. Many thanks to Bill and Mary Ann Gilbert for opening their home to the choir and guest audience, and for the lovely refreshments after the singing. In addition to reviewing some favourite material from our last concert, the audience was very gracious and patient as we “note-bashed” some new sections and tackled less familiar material we hope to perform in concert soon! Thank you again.

Our Thanks!

image1A big thank-you to the appreciative audience for our concert this afternoon in East Chezzetcook.

Also huge thanks to our guests Rowan Wilson-Henkelmen and Ro Evans. Rowan performed solos accompanied by John Plant, and Rise Again with the Choir. Mo accompanied Blair for the “jazz” part of the concert.   A good time was had by all!

For those not able to attend you can see the varied program here and a post concert photo.

None of this would be possible without the leadership of Janet and Allan, and the able support of John – see program! Thanks to all three.

Practice continues for performances on May 14th and June 5th. More details on these to come.
