Good evening everyone, we do love Peter! Don’t forget to say DONGLE to Ed at the end. I popped up to the front to say sorry for mislabelling last weeks blog, sorry I won’t be around to blog next week and thank you (again) for supporting NOT LOST - Susie the Dorchester Cat (book). I’ve been invited to the AGM of PEOPLE FIRST DORSET to find out just how much money was raised. And eat pizza.
Anyway. Back to choir. We did a lot of breathing work. Bob had been practicing all the tricks. Ed thinks it’s in your buttocks but it’s really your pelvic floor. But we won’t mention it again.
It’s to help with CAROL OF THE BELLS. We sang with the piano and then a capela. Some people are still going Doooong when they should be going donnnnng. Don’t.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY blasted from the speaker. It was sung very nicely, and Ed wants a bit more festive aggressive! More Divas! More loud! Leave Aled Jones at home.
A WINTERS TALE is a little low but Ed said we could zip up an octave in the second verse.
We sang IN THE BLEAK MIDWINTER. Everyone was happy. Ed didn’t even announce DING DONG MERRILY ON HIGH probably because it’s on the same sheet. Please roll your rrrrrrrs if you can. And mind the gap. Use your pelvic floors for the big Gloria at the end
Cliff Richard’s O LITTLE TOWN next. What a treat it was … to sing the trad version afterwards with Ed at the piano. We voted for the best version to perform.
Ed played so we could sing MARY DID YOU KNOW? Bob dropped off it was so soothing and Ed said he will play this live at the concert.
We stood to perform O HOLY NIGHT.
Well done DFS KEEP singing xxx
