With all the extra practice we should be sounding much better!

Need some extra practice? There are 2 practices on offer:
Tuesday 9th May at 7pm – Andrew & Marion’s place crn Herbert and Kitchener – women may go next door to Ritamay’s if we have a big roll up. (Hall not available) VOCE folks please come at 6:00pm to have a quick meeting! There are some rather pressing decisions to make regarding: Chrissey Martin’s performance request, learning “You’re the Voice”, Bon Amici or Park House for last performance before Hobart, Marion’s proposal for the Jazz club, Kent’s request from Elaine Coates group.
AND
Thursday 11th May at 7.15pm at deMolay (available)
These will be ‘do-it-ourselves’ practices of parts and a chance to be ready to impress Astrid the following Tuesday!!!
Hope to see you at one or both. In the meantime we have some words to learn and great practice tracks under repertoire.
Cheers, Marion & Rebecca (and others)
Listen smith of heavens
whom the poet bids
May mercy softly come to me
So I call on thee
for you created me
I am they slave
you are my Lord
God, I call on thee
to heal me
Remember me, mild one
we need thee
Drive out, O king
generous and great
every human sorrow
from the heart
Bless her heart, Pam reminded me to share that all Choirbolical members (and prospective members too) are invited to get together at Park House at 6:00pm for some fun social time before rehearsal.
May see you there!
Cheers,
Rebecca

I hope we can impress Astrid with how much we gained from her posting our parts on the website to practice at home.
See you on Tuesday!

Astrid has done a recording of the English portion of this song with a tad bit of linguistic license, bless her heart! Please feel free to write the new words on this larger copy so we can all sing the same words.
You should be able to open and print from the title printed below ?
Happy Easter to all, hope you have had a lovely break!

To spare you of the frustration of trying to do something that is not currently doable:
I have just spoken to a representative with Festival of Voices as I was unable to purchase the $99 ticket each Choirbolical member will need to purchase.
They are reconstructing their website and the ticket purchase option for singers is not available. I was informed it may not be available until May. They said “Don’t worry”.
They are “fully aware Choirbolical is attending” as we are registered already as a pop up performing choir (bless you Astrid!).
Hopefully this will make things easy for the rest of you!
Cheers,
Rebecca
