Yesterday, Vocal Point, the choir that I belong to, had a workshop. It was wonderful. On a few levels. First, since it was on a Saturday, instead of a Tuesday, I was able to go to it. I’ve only been able to go to one choir rehearsal since February. Because my play rehearsals are on…
Choir started up this week. Unfortunately, I can only attend for the next few weeks. Starting February, my play rehearsals will conflict with choir rehearsals. Choir rehearsals are recorded though. So, I can listen to them after the fact and work on the songs on my own. My play should finish before the choir’s big…
In our choir, we have lots of sopranos and altos. And up until this session, we had a good number of tenors. But we’ve always had a scant amount of basses. Usually three. And one of them is me. So, it’s more like two and a half. At the beginning of each session, we’d gain…
Yesterday, our choir sang for a senior’s residence again. We were back at Caroline Place Retirement Residence for a second time. We played all the songs that we’ll be singing in our Sleighing It concert, instead of only a selection. I’m still working on my lyrics to get “off book”, so I was holding onto…
The new season has started for Vocal Point Choir. And we’re learning the songs for our concerts in December 2024. As often happens at the start of a new session, new people join. And others leave. It’s strange when the choir shuffles a little from season to season. We’ve got two new people singing Bass.…
We had our Vocal Point end of season party this week. Unfortunately, not everyone could make it out. Schedules, schedules, schedules. It’s hard to wrangle a big group of folks. I was able to get there, though. And aside from my Karaoke Krash, it was a fun time. We celebrated at Deja Vu Karaoke Bar.…
If you’re going to do karaoke, you’ve got to know your songs! Our choir, Vocal Point, had it’s season ending party this week. And it was at a Karaoke Bar. I wasn’t going to sing. I save my karaoke singing for home. With a ladle for a microphone. And my family as my audience. They’re…
Vocal Point Choir’s season is finished. We had a our Feelin’ Good spring concerts on May 31 and June 1. I couldn’t be at the May 31 concert, but I was there for the June 1 one. What an awesome feeling it is to sing with the choir! I love it. There’s something about the…
It’s been a while since I posted anything regarding my year of the woo woo. So, I thought I’d share a recent one. I haven’t been able to go to my choir rehearsals since rehearsals for Burn started. The plan was that I would continue to work on the songs and try to get them…
Tickets are on sale now for Vocal Point’s Spring 2024 show: Feeling Good – A Sixties Snapshot. Unfortunately, I won’t be at the first show (May 31) because Burn opens on that day, also. But I should be able to sing in the second show. The music is a lot of fun. I highly recommend…
