A few months ago I joined a Choral Society. I wanted to make some new friends and I love to sing.
We are preparing for a performance which will take place on Saturday the 5th May.
We are singing a 3 medleys:
- Westside story
- Les Miserable
- Fiddler on the roof
and four other songs
- Over the rainbow
- Ain't Misbehavin'
- Night and Day
- 's wonderful
There are other songs too, ones that are being sung by soloists. I don't know which songs they are singing.
We are preparing our costumes for the event. The men will wear black trousers and black shirts. They usually wear a white shirt and a black dicky-bow. The women will wear a long black skirt a special black top and instead of wearing a silk scarf with gold musical notation, this time we are wearing a flower on our shoulder. I have chosen a bright pink one.
Singing is fun, it makes me happy. It's hard work as we sometimes sing in 8 part harmony (usually there are only four main ranges). We have bass and tenor voices for the men and alto and soprano for the women; I am a soprano.
If the event is recorded, I will post a link to it in a few weeks.
Do you sing in a choir? What kind of songs do you sing?
