    January 2016. And so it begins… a cheery email entitled ‘Hello ALL’ from the music- community-choir email list, but actually from Harvey Brough our esteemed and energetic Turner Sims Professor of Music. The email says that the University of Southampton Voices (USV for those fond of acronyms) will start rehearsing again in the Turner Sims, Highfield Comment [CJP1]: http://blog.soton.ac.u k/music/2013/12/11/uos-voices-sing/ on Wednesday 27th January 2016 “at the normal time - 1 10 pm - 1 50 pm. Then all subsequent Wednesdays”. So far so good. We’ve watched X-Factor, or Gareth Malone’s BBC choir series, so we know that community Comment [CJP2]: http://www.garethma lone.com/programmes/the-choir choirs are part of a ‘great choral tradition’. This is a chance to join in and ‘embrace the music’ with a bunch of likeminded folk from around the university - academics, administrators, students and scholars. And hey it’s only 40 minutes at lunch time. I used to like singing at primary school. …It looks like fun. …What harm could it do to go along? At the very least it’s a chance to see the inside of the Turner Sims concert hall …? I could just Comment [CJP3]: https://www.turnersi ms.co.uk/ go along and see and if I don't like it I could just stop…? That’s how it starts. Take it from me if you come along you’ll be hooked. Even the bit in the email that says “We will present a concert of ‘A Hum about Mine Ears’ by Clara Sanabras on May 7th at St Michael's, Bugle Street.

  • NEWSLETTER WEDNESDAY 30TH SEPTEMBER 2020 Welcome to Another Edition of Ramblings from the Conductor! I Hope This Newsletter Finds You Well
    Winchester City Festival Choir NEWSLETTER WEDNESDAY 30TH SEPTEMBER 2020 Welcome to another edition of ramblings from the conductor! I hope this newsletter finds you well. Here is this week’s newsletter. As ever, comments, feedback, suggestions welcome! Have you sung since March? I’ve been playing for services again since the end of July; and because of numbers last Sunday, I sang along with the church choir from the organ. This was the first time that I had done some real singing since March… and I have to say that I found it a real struggle; in fact, my voice packed up quite early on during the service! So the moral of this story is: if you haven’t done any / much singing since March, please could I encourage you to do so! Our singing voices are musical instruments, which need regular practice if we are to use them. Do use some of the opportunities listed below to help you, plus any other ways that you might find helpful. If you find other ways that I don’t mention here, then let me know and I’ll promote them here so everyone can benefit! What’s On Listings The stay at home choir are inviting you to register for their festive winter project: https://new.stayathomechoir.com/projects/christmas Many singing opportunities available on the self-isolation choir website: https://www.theselfisolationchoir.com/elijah https://www.theselfisolationchoir.com/requiems-at-home https://www.theselfisolationchoir.com/symphony-no-2-mahler https://www.theselfisolationchoir.com/st-john-passion (NEW LISTING) Ben England’s excellent videos on the Homechoir YouTube channel are well worth joining in with.
