From Morna

Thank you to everyone who sang Friday afternoon for the conference downtown and last night at Elim Village. They were both strong performances for enthusiastic audiences. Valerie, you have had a lot of details to contend with in the past six weeks. Thank you SO much for the exemplary job you are doing.

Based on the March 4 survey results, I have updated the roster and repertoire list for the VSO Day of Music performance on June 1, which is our next and final one of the season.  Please check the calendar listing.

Please read carefully:

We have decided that the season has come to a great conclusion with a great deal of singing in recent weeks.  So we are cancelling the May 24 rehearsal.Our next and final rehearsal of 23/24 will be Friday morning, May 31 only for those singing the VSO Day of Music performance the next day.

(Section leaders, I would appreciate it if you could also send around an email shortly before May 24 reinforcing this message).

It is very important for MUSIC HAND-IN that those not singing on June 1 get all their music to someone who is before May 31.  Please organize that now, as there are 2 full weeks to make that transfer.  I do not want the cancellation of the May 24 rehearsal to make John Culter’s life difficult.  We will collect all music not in the VSO gig on May 31 and the VSO rep at Christ Church Cathedral following the performance. It would be great if we can have a few extra hands on deck to help with sorting and carrying.  Thank you!

As I will be in Montreal for the Podium conference, I am not planning to send a weekly email on Monday, May 20.  There may be other messages from others.  Happy Victoria Day and see you soon!

Garnet and Nancy invite all choir members (and spouses/partners) to come out to the country for a casual social gathering on FRIDAY, JUNE 7 TH. We are asking that everyone bring their own lunch and we will provide tea/coffee, punch and some sweet bites for dessert.

Of course, we’re hoping that the weather will be warm and lovely so we can all sit outside and those who would like to can swim in the pool. If it isn’t warm, we can sit inside.
