So the year started with Ed as a piece of pop art and an argument about how old choir is, which I will always win by just asking you to scroll back and read the first blog post. This blog is 11 years old this month folks. Because I didn’t take over the blog until our second term.
Ed and jack showed all the concert dates for this year on the big screen, and all scribbled to write them down except me who was busy waffling on about something or other.
Some people want a trip but a chin wag is needed to decide what might me fun, and then we headed to warm up with a Dum Dum Diddley Dum! And other exercises some of which were not taken seriously at all.
We had 11 brand new songs to learn, including a hot new medley and it’s an epic. We began though with a hymn, My Song Is Love Unknown with the words writ large on the screen ... it was also rather sweet as another warm up before we looked at our medley. We had a little run through with YouTube. I wonder if Alexa has this in her armoury?
After listening to another choir try their best, and attempting to sing along we were pleased to start braking down songs with Ed and the piano and a slightly lower key. Phew. We have until the seventh of March to perfect that baby.
And for a change of pace we dug The Skye Boat Song out of the pile. It might be time for the return of Seagull-on-a-stick, perhaps?
Our last song to send us off nicely was Wild West Hero after Ed retrieved his dongle, and we checked how we should leave the chairs in our wake.
Wow well done DFS a good start to the new year, and the best is yet to come. Love you, Cat xxx
