April 2018

What a difference a month makes!


This time it's a big well-done to those of you who managed to drag yourselves in from the garden! And welcome to the four new people who came.

Here is the link to April's recordings: a Taiwanese fishermen's song; a spiritual; a protest song from South Africa.

We didn't quite finish the spiritual and the South African song proved quite a challenge (!) so the recordings include versions of Steal Away and Senzenina from Chris's Coventry community choir WorldSong.

In the Description section for each MP3 you'll find song information, lyrics and a translation.

Here is the Cape Town Youth Choir's version of Senzenina

And Michael Tippett's arrangement of Steal Away.

Enjoy!

Hope to see you next month on Saturday 19 May - same time, same place, new songs, new faces - ignore the royal wedding and the FA cup final doesn't kick off until 5pm!
