Dear Sing!ers,
Here is everything you need to know for our rehearsal on Thursday and more…
1. This Week
We will be meeting as usual in the Recital room at Hills Road 6th Form College this Thursday 3rd October from 7:30 – 9:15. This week, we will be recapping Harbour, finishing learning Never Gonna Not Dance Again and Barbara Ann.
If you miss a rehearsal or just need a bit of a reminder, it is really helpful to us if you practise using the pre-recorded audio tracks. The links to these can be found at the bottom of each rehearsals email and should look like this:
'Find music, part tracks and lyrics for our current term on Google Drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1q95xCYf1eP66Eev6P65ii-zE6HcO8I58?usp=sharing'
This week it will be the Tenors and Basses turn to bring snacks.
2. Still no need for QR code this week
It looks like we will continue to enter without QR codes for a few weeks – just watch this space for updates! The code for the car park is 8945.
