3 PART SINGING, 3 PART PLAYING + MOUTH ORGAN TRIO.

After warming up the voices, we sang through the beautiful French spring carol 'LOVE IS COME AGAIN', which evokes that special feeling we get on seeing those first shoots coming up through the ground _ as well as being a great sing.
SENUA was our 'piece de resistance' today, introduced by the 3 mouth organs to a humming accompaniment. The song was then sung in a 3 part harmony which was next transferred to the barred instruments, _ a very satisfying process _ and it even sounded quite good.
Staying on the African theme, we revisited Mandela Danced in the Square, a first time for some and we will keep it going.

REMINDER: Our A.G.M. is next week, 18th March at 10.00 a.m. after which we'll make merry with music, as usual.

END OF WINTER WHOOP-UP is:
OPEN HOUSE AND OPEN SANDWICHES from 12.30 onwards at 6 Hillcrest Street, all members, friends, companions and spouses welcome.
