Big Sing 2008

Marion — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 12:50:11 +0000

What a great day was had by all at the Big Sing at Stuartholme on Sunday. We enjoyed the workshops with James and Claire and the concert in the afternoon was well received. Choirbolical’s performance was fantastic with great conducting by Margaret on shaky legs. We’re already looking forward to next year – hopefully at the same relaxing venue

Rehearsal Dates Term 2

Please find Rehearsal dates for Term 2 listed on the site. The ANZAC day performance at the RSL Westhaven Retirement Village was interesting, but a fantastic medley enjoyed by those who stopped to listen. Thanks Margaret for putting it together and your wonderful conducting. Also thanks to Lorraine who accompanied us once again.
