25th Nov 
- Rehearsal time 2-5.30pm 

As you know Colin is producing CDs for the different voices for the Christmas music and expects to have them at our next rehearsal (on the 16th) - which will be a boon!

In the meantime I've added links on the website to performances of nine of the pieces that I've found online. You can access them using this link.
The pieces are:

• I Wish You Christmas
• One Still and Silent Night
• From a Distance (Christmas Version)
• The Little Road to Bethlehem
• Star of the East
• Jingle Bells. Arr. Ray Charles
• Still, Still, Still [in German]
• Festival Sanctus
• Christmas Lullaby

I've tested the links on my laptop and phone and all seems OK - but if anyone has any problems accessing them please let me know.

We next meet on 3rd June as usual from 2-4.30pm.
Please remember to bring the West Side Story medley (186 + 111) to replace Phantom of the Opera for our next concert.
All other pieces remain the same. 

Please note before the concert on 24th June at Our Lady Queen of Peace, Penshaw, I shall provide location and other info.

We start again on Saturday (7th) with a practice 10-4pm.
We're in the church for the morning then will move to the Upper Room for lunch and the afternoon.
