Hello singers and welcome to SGC2023. I hope that the flush of the happiness of the holidays and the success of your singing in the December concerts still lingers pleasantly.
Siobhan will be posting a message shortly with dates and details. Thanks to her and all who have helped shape the plan for the coming two terms. As you know, we are tackling Haydn’s Creation, starting on Tuesday next week, Jan 10. I hope you are looking forward to learning a big work that this choir has never sung before.
Tricia Joshi has very kindly taken on the job of ordering scores. Please see the earlier post from her and let her know if you would like to be part of the bulk order of scores.
Just as with the music for last term, the lead time for getting music has increased and despite ordering back in early December it is likely that we won’t have the scores in our hands on Tuesday. So I have to ask you please to do some printing of music to bring along. There are 4 files on the Downloads page of the website, 3 Creation movements and Zadok the Priest. If you wouldn’t mind, please print those off and bring them on Tuesday evening. And for fun, please also bring Bogoroditse Dyevo.
Watch out for those 12 drummers today, and see you on Tuesday.
Chris
