Interested in African drumming workshop after performance on 9th Sep
We need to know how many are interested in a drumming workshop after our performance on the Walton stores stage on 9th Sept?
How many have their own drum to bring?
I am in the process of booking the CUA community hub for this workshop. It will be from about 2pm for an hour if all the ducks line up!
Please reply with Yes or No and number of drums you can bring.
Best wishes,
Lesley
Performance today cancelled.
- Sorry everyone but it seems that we won’t have a credible choirbolical performance today with a very depleted male line due to illness and absence. Hope you get this notice with enough time to reorganise your day. Sorry once again.
Marion (and Chrissy who was to lead us)

FOV wrap up

Here is a glimpse of choirbolical’s Festival of Voices experience in Hobart 2017. Pop up performances at markets, concert appearance at Town Hall and hanging at the Singer’s lounge where choirbolical took to the stage AND Joe, Alison and Astrid gave blackboard performances to great applause; AND not forgetting a memorable rendition of Carole King’s Natural Woman led by Astrid.
A fabulous time was had by all 30+ of us. ( Not so fabulous was the flu many of our travellers came down with afterwards.) Hopefully most are on the mend for the resumption of rehearsals this week. See you there.

Astrid has put two new pieces for printing onto the website in the repertoire section. Please print and bring both to our next rehearsal. If you have any trouble accessing the pieces mail Astrid direct: [email protected].
VOCE minutes have been posted on the website as well so please take a look at what is happening.
Look forward to seeing you Tuesday!

Choirbolical Rehearsal CANCELLED for tonight 18 July
Choirbolical rehearsal for tonight is CANCELLED
Choir rehearsal will resume 1 August usual time and place.
No VOCE tonight, too many people still not well enough.
Apologies from Astrid (poor dear)
Get better soon!
Cheers,
Rebecca
Astrid is not going to make it to rehearsal tonight
As Astrid is not going to be able to attend tonight and as many of our members are still crook as well, please watch for a follow up email today before you come to rehearsal tonight. Rehearsal may be cancelled. I am awaiting feed back from others to make the decision. Astrid was going to introduce new repertoire and we really don’t have a lot to do. I want to suggest that anyone wanting to participate with VOCE at Park House tonight, that might be an alternative. More as know.
Cheers, Rebecca
