We say good bye to Peter Shoobridge

It was with sadness that we farewelled Peter today.
Jan says ....
Peter has always been a wonderful fan and supporter of our chorus and
I've often said that when Judith joined WHC we got Peter too.
We know how much he will be missed by Judith and all their family.
We extend our sympathy to them at this sad time.
R.I.P Peter.

The mirror is your FRIEND!

There are some lively faces!

Are we having fun yet????
Looks like most of us are!

Remember to laugh (or yawn) before taking that pitch note.

Weekend Coaching with Virginia

Here's a POD that Virginia recorded this afternoon.
The choreo recordings to follow....
We had a busy coaching weekend with our coach from NZ, Virginia Humphrey-Taylor.
She's really one of us so maybe we should make her an honorary Aussie?
She knows I am Australian!
We learnt heaps about breath management, vowel matching and the maintenance of our 'instrument'.
Now to remember all that and put it into practice as we prepare for competition in May.
We began the day at Wests Club - a chilly start with cardi's and scarves!
The 'Breathing Wall' ....
Remember you can enlarge the photos by double clicking on them...
Comments from other chorus member's would be welcome.
How about some thoughts from our 'new' members?
