Greetings all ye frozen people!
The week feels so bleak without our Wednesday evening together, yet I'm glad we could all be home safe and snug on such a blustery night as yesterday. I look forward to our Plymouth Choir reunion on Sunday morning at 9:30 (we will sing the first verse of MY SOUL TRIUMPHANT and Rutter's BE THOU MY VISION), and then lunch together before our make-up rehearsal with our Abendmusik Chorus friends from 12:15-2:00 p.m.
Please remember that we soon gather for our Abendmusik Midwinter Music Workshop. Of the nearly 100 singers in Plymouth Choir and Abendmusik, we have only 14 registered for the workshops thus far. Registration deadlines is in just a week. Don't you want to join Cindy, Michele, Deanne, Karin, Shaun, Allan, Pat, Peggy, Ann, Doris, Phyllis, Jane, Jim, Enoch, Jeremy and me for an exciting and fun day? Remember, for anyone who expresses a need, we can offer a full scholarship to the event, which includes breakfast and lunch. The voice sessions with Lindsay Kesselman will be absolutely extraordinary-- she is truly a wonder! How exhilarating it will be to listen to the 70 voice children's choir in their afternoon performance! How fun it will be to experience Therees Hibbard's singing and movement session: "Let the Body Sing!" And, of course, you have more time to learn from and experience the legendary Alice Parker in Q and A as well as in a special morning session of melody study. And our own Paula Nicholls is preparing an array of delicious food for us all to enjoy.
I look forward to welcoming your registration soon. This is an important event in the evolution of our choir and the educational outreach of Abendmusik: Lincoln.
Grace and peace,
TT
