From Morna

On Friday we will be a month away from our April 16 concert, so it is time for all singers to be proactive about tackling any tough spots in the music on their own between Fridays.  The concert order is the order of the weekly rehearsal grid.  The singalong will be Scarborough Fair (unison, words to come).

Music to be rehearsed Friday is Dashing Away with the Smoothing Iron, Quick, We Have But a Second, The Summer Wind, Sonnet 43, Scarborough Fair, Send in the Clowns, Wind Rising in the Alleys.

A reminder that sopranos meet at 9:30 in the library this week for their self-directed sectional.

See 35 of you on Thursday afternoon (see below) and everyone on Friday!

Details for Bill Ireland’s Celebration of Life

Thursday, March 16  3pm call, 4pm service

Enter via the lower Burrard Street door at 690 Burrard. Proceed upstairs to the sanctuary and to the facing choir stalls in the chancel.

Apparel: 

Women:  Colorful silk ponchos with black dress pants, black nylons and black dress shoes. Please wear modest gold earrings.  Kindly secure your top to your camisole or bra strap to make sure it does not show your bare shoulders.

Men:  Black long sleeved dress shirt with your red EnChor tie.  Black dress pants, black socks and black dress shoes.    Best if you come dressed, but there will be time if needed.

Music is An Irish Blessing, We Rise Again, and hymns Abide with Me and Be Thou My Vision. Rupert Lang is playing piano and organ, and some members of the Cathedral Choir will join us.  It will be beautiful.

At the moment, I don’t know the end time of the event and whether there is a reception on site, but contact me if that is important to you (morna@enchor.ca).  I will hopefully know those details by tomorrow.
