GCS Weekly Warm-up (V160216)

Posted February 19, 2016

Hi my singing friends!

I hope you all had a fantastic Family Day. My daughter and I watched old movies and ate popcorn. Not exactly life-affirming, but fun!

NEW MEMBERS:
We’re delighted to welcome 17 new members (plus a few who may yet join us this Wednesday). Be sure to say hello! And if you are new, don’t be shy – move right into the middle of the row. You will find it’s easier to sing if you have experienced voices all around you. In fact we sing better when we’re all crowded together. We can hear ourselves better!

LAST WEEK WE SANG:

  • Sit Down You’re Rocking the Boat
  • Now is the Month of Maying
  • There’s No Business Like Show Business

MUSIC READING WORKSHOP:
Ever wonder what those strange symbols mean? Grace is hosting another Music Reading Workshop on March 9. Don’t forget to sign up!

PRACTICE TRACKS:
Dave has posted some new music on the website. The password is gcs. The tracks are easy to download and you can even add them to your smartphone playlist! Please let us know if you’re having trouble accessing the tracks.

C’MON GET SOCIAL!
We can get a deal on tickets to Into the Woods (April 30th). Please sign up and join us for a lovely evening of music at the River Run.

DATES
Session 2 Rehearsals:   Feb 3 – June 1
Break:                            March 16th
