Dear All
One-off change of venue for 25/6:
Tuesday’s rehearsal (25/6) will take place at St Michael’s Church in Barnes, address: 39 Elm Bank Gardens, Barnes SW13 0NX https://stmichaelbarnes.org/contact-us/ . Same time as usual 19:45-21:30
St Mary’s unfortunately double booked us with an election hustings event leaving us little alternative but to move. None of our previous venues were available hence the choice of St Michael’s. Sincere apologies to everyone for the inconvenience. Parking is possible in the local streets but I suggest leaving a bit of extra time to locate a spot.
As promised, we will be looking at some of the music for the Autumn term. See below for list of music to bring to the rehearsal.
And don’t forget the choir party on 2/7 – details below. Let me know what you’ll be bringing!
Music to bring to 25/6 rehearsal:
Please bring the following pieces of music to rehearsal. Many people will already have Vivaldi’s Gloria Novello edition which they can bring along. Otherwise you’ll find a link to a printable file below.
All music may also be found on Music and Media page under the tab still labelled Spring/Summer 2024
Choir Party – Tuesday 2nd July:
We are going to have our choir party on Tuesday 2nd July (week after the last rehearsal of term). Sorry to pick a school night but it seemed the best option having left organising it to the last minute (looks like we might already have a social secretary to do it properly next time… )
For the same reason we’re going to keep it simple and hold it at my house (Siobhan’s) and ask people to bring a bottle of their favourite tipple and a plate of food/nibbles. If you can give me an idea of what you plan to bring then we can avoid ending up with a mountain of sausage rolls….
Date: 2nd July
Time: 7:30 pm
Venue: 28 York Ave, East Sheen SW14 7LG
Come & Sing – Sat 28th Sep ’24:
We will be holding our second Come and Sing on Sat 28th Sep at Christchurch.
As anyone who made it to the last one will know, it is a wonderful event both for the singing and the chance to meet visitors who have come along for the day just for the fun of it (…then some of them stay!).
As before we need support from choir members to make this event work. Please let Siobhan know if you can make it siobhan.waswood@icloud.com
