Lesson Plan – 5th July

by

Hi All! Nothing much new planned for this evening.  We’re saving all our new material for the after summer session where we’ll hopefully have a few newbies on board. So, that being said, tonight we’ll likely be continuing on with Moon River, a revisit to Agnus Dei (Byrd Mass) so that we don’t lose what … Read more

Lesson Plan – 21st June

Sorry so late on this one!  An oversight on our part.  Tonight we shall crack the Byrd (Agnus Dei), as Carol puts it and begin our new version of Moon River.  Printed parts will be available tonight at the meeting. See you there!

Plan for Thursday, 6th June

Food for thought: inviting your feedback

by

We’re evaluating how to move forward with our group, to keep everyone interested, feeling that they’re continuing to learn and develop, and also, from a practical point of view, keeping the numbers high enough to ensure a solid financial footing, so that people don’t have to keep breaking open their piggy banks to keep us … Read more

Plan for Thursday, 17 May meeting:

by

Hi Gang,

We’re instituting a new policy of actually making you all aware of what we’re planning on doing at our next meeting.  In advance!  Now, I know this will take the excitement out of it for some of you, the desire to fly by the seat of your pants on a Thursday evening but we decided it was probably the best way to go.

So without further ado:
For this coming Thursday, 17 May, we plan to cover:

1. Both movements of the Byrd Mass, the Kyrie and the
Agnus Dei
2. Follow Me, the madrigal
3. Summer Is A-Comin’ In, the round

Have fun revising!

As Carol and I have announced in our sessions, we are very happy to work with you during our little vino intervals. And, please, if … Read more
