Come and Sing: Musical Postcards

Come and Sing with us on Saturday 18th July!

This is an open invitation for anyone who wishes to join us for a day of singing. Maybe you haven’t sung in a choir since school. Maybe you would like to sing with a choir but don’t have the time for a regular commitment. Maybe you are thinking of joining us would like to find out more about what makes Nayland choir so special. Maybe you’re already in Nayland Choir or any other choir and just want a bit more singing in your life…

Whatever your circumstances, if you can follow along on a musical score (you don’t need to sing from sight), you would be very welcome. Run by Nayland Choir, our musical director, Emma Bishton, will lead the day and our regular accompanist, Mary Blanchard, will be playing for us.

Why ‘Musical Postcards’? As it will be Summer holiday season, we will be singing songs linked to places around the UK and beyond, in a mixture of musical genres and styles.

How will the day be organised? We will start at 10.00 am, there will be breaks for lunch and coffee. We will finish with an informal performance (which friends and family can attend) at 3.30 pm, finishing at 4.00 pm.

How much will it cost? Tickets will be £15.00. This includes tea/ coffee and cake but you will need to bring lunch (or buy it locally) and water.

Tickets will be available from June but you may email us at naylandchoir@gmail.com to register your interest and we will then email you details of ticket sales once they become available.

Happy New Year!

Our first rehearsal of the new year will be on Thursday 8th January at Nayland school hall from 8 – 10 pm. We look forward to welcoming back our regular singers and anyone new who wishes to join us.

Although the back door will be open as usual, the front door of the school will also be open from 7.50 – 8.00 to help people avoid the dark car park and path.

This term’s music for our next concert on Sunday 29th March in St. James’ Church, will be Pergolesi’s Stabat Mater, Vivaldi’s Credo and Haydn’s Missa Brevis, and we will be accompanied once again by a group of musicians.

For Nayland choir members:

Constitution of a Charitable Incorporated Organisation

The proposed constitution is now available to view in the members area. I’m afraid it’s not a light read but will hopefully help you to understand the proposed changes.

We will hold a meeting to approve this on Thursday 16th October at 7.45 pm, immediately before our regular choir practice and you will be able to ask questions or make comments there. Alternatively, feel free have a chat with one of the committee before then.

Thank you, everyone! Kathryn
