Sunday, November 17th: Trinity Choir and Praise Team to sing

November 17th at 3:00 is the Covenanting Service with Rev. Sydney.

The choir and praise team will offer a music ministry song: Oh a Song Must Rise (MV 142). Please wear a uniform of black on the bottom (dress, skirt, or pants) and white or black on top (blouse, sweater, shirt...). 

We will be meeting 4 times to rehearse. You don't have to come to every rehearsal. Even if you arrive at 2:30 on Sunday the 17th, we welcome you to sing with us. 

Kevin is away but we'll have a supply ministry musician to accompany us at the service. For rehearsals, we have a recorded piano accompaniment. We'll see how we can make this hymn into a performance piece (anthem-ish). It might be as simple as having a solo or a section on one verse and a different section on another. We'll be sure to have a rousing chorus. We can adapt the arrangement to have two or three parts for harmonies and fun. 

Listen to this church choir sing it. I love what they've done to jazz it up. 

Singing out God's praises and glory, the faithful voices blend. Oh a song must rise for the spirit to descend.

Come and blend your faithful voice with ours.

New Name of My Singing Night: Sing-along Café

 

Thursday, April 18 Sing-along Café Review

The theme for the evening was: Songs with La-las (and other nonsense: ooh, doo-dah, na-na, scoobie-doobie, bum-ba-bum, hey!). I call all of these little non-word lyrics la-las. They're often my favourite part of a song. Everyone can sing those words, usually. With scat singing, not usually, and with yodeling, not everyone. But, think about the Beatles song Hey Jude. At the end, everyone can sing along with the na-nas and some of us even like to harmonize with them. When my daughter was writing songs, I urged her to put some nonesense la-las in her songs. Don't worry about finding beautiful, powerful words for all the verses, or all the lines of the chorus. Sometimes, the lack of words makes a melody more powerful.  Here's the list of songs we sang and listened to: Can't Get You Out of My Head   by Kylie Minogue Everything   by Michael Bublé Those Were the Days   by Mary Hopkin Hey Jude   by the Beatles Tom's Diner   by Suzanne Vega &DNA De Do Do Do, De ...
