We had a busy weekend learning more about our
craft with Virginia and Jan.
We started on Saturday morning at Dapto Leagues Club
and worked there until lunchtime.
We spent the morning after a fun warm up with Denise, running
through the songs for our planned concert in April.
Then off to Farnborough Rd for the afternoon to further
work on the songs and fine tune our presentation.
As usual Virg our dynamic coach from Christchurch NZ
encouraged and guided us especially in our
'singers' posture and breathing technique.
It was coaching for both the chorus and Director Jan
so that we can work together to fix some of
our 'sync' problems!
Our 'Newbies' were introduced to Singlish and
shown just what a difference it makes to our sound when
the words are formed the same and sung together to
make those barbershop chords lock and ring!
We are working on performing in smaller groups,
listening to all the parts and taking personal responsibility
to match our voices to present a unit sound.
The audience observes and then makes comment
- hopefully positive, on the sound
and performance of the group.
Next it will be your turn!
