May 2013: May the fourth was with us phew...

Whilst others were lying around in the sunshine last Saturday, 10 eager singers gathered in the Scout Hall in Wivenhoe and had an amazing singing session!

We managed to learn FIVE songs in an afternoon and fit in some detailed small group harmony singing practice. Which I think is pretty wonderful. I think we make a damn good sound for such a small group. One of the songs (Kada Kidi) had SIX separate parts AND actions.

So well done all. Here is a link to the recordings:

There is one MP3 file for each song. You can listen to them online, download them individually to your PC or download the entire folder.

Some of them are a little shaky at the start (not bad considering how quickly we learnt them!), but they all settle down well.

Many thanks again for being the guinea pigs for my April songwriting challenge "Alleluya".

I taught Kada Kidi with actions to almost 200 singers on London's Southbank yesterday. The bobbing up and down and hands up actions were a joy to behold!

I look forward to seeing you all on Saturday 8th June.
