“If you can talk, you can sing”

Thank you for the wonderful 2010 –  11 choir sessions!  The new Vancouver CanSing programs have grown since last fall especially with the adult group.

From the toe-stompin’ “Cripple Creek” to the beautiful harmonies of “By the Waters of Babylon” and mass Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah”, the choirs really pulled out all the stops March 12th – great teamwork!  The audience was so impressed.

I’m working to have the fall session organized in a few weeks.  I’ll send a notice ASAP and I hope to see you all back for another amazing choral journey, Tuesdays.  .

Once again, great singing!

The CanSing Primary, Intermediate singers and Adult Choir are excited about “singing into spring” with a short performance, EVERYTHING’S COMING UP ROSES, Saturday, March 12, 2:30pm at Cityview Baptist Church (Riley Park neighbourhood).

The singers will weave a little seasonal magic with everything from “Ice Cream” (Anne of Green Gables), “The Spider and the Fly”, “Sing, Sing, Sing”, “Keep Your Lamps Trimmed and Burning” to a mass choir performance of “Hallelujah” by Leonard Cohen” (Roger Emerson version).  There’s even some talk amongst the Primary choristers that the group will pull out a rendition of the Canadian folksong, “The Little Skunk”!

Plans are in progress for the Primary and Intermediate singers to record the mini-musicals: “The Jolly Crawly Bugs” and “Winter Solstice News” following their spring choir session.
