[Sing! Rehearsals] This week at Sing!

This week at Sing!
This week we'll be doing a surprise recap song! Then we'll be learning some more of Keep Singing and the Abba Gold Medley. It's the Tenors and Basses turn to bring snacks.

Catching up on music

Now that we have all our new members for the term, we'd like to remind everyone of what we hope for from you in terms of learning music for the term. As we are a choir with a relaxed attendance policy (come when you can, but don't worry if you miss some weeks!), and a choir that learns by ear rather than from sheet music, we've learnt over the years that it can be a challenge to make progress with songs in our rehearsals. For those who've missed rehearsals it can be difficult to catch up, and for those who are there every week it can be frustrating to continually have to go over things again from the beginning!

We really want to make Sing! as enjoyable as possible for everyone. So, in each weekly email, we tell you which songs we'll be singing at the coming Thursday's rehearsal. If you're going to miss the rehearsal, we'd like to ask that you have a listen and practise the songs at home instead, using the resources on our Google drive here: For the Choir (Autumn 2025)

This link is included at the bottom of every weekly email we send (If you can’t find it straight away, it might be in an attachment).

We aim to share as much as we can in this folder. Due to permissions, we're not able to share full scores of all the songs, but we will share lyrics and audio recordings for everything where possible. Getting all these resources up takes a lot of time on our part, so please do use them! We're working our way through the songs for this term, so keep checking back 🙂

Subs are now due for this term. Please pay by Friday 24 October. We are keeping them flat, but keeping an eye on costs.
