January 2018

Gosh, the first session of 2018 turned out to be a very, very well-attended blinder!


[ this is an old photo from 2015 - we had almost twice as many singers this month ]

I don't think we quite manage to beat our previous record of filling the Scout Hall to capacity, but 36 singers came pretty close - we almost ran out of chairs.

And we had decent number of men (we can always do with more chaps!).

Here is the link to January's recordings: a party song from Cameroon, an old setting of a Psalm (Waters of Babylon) and a Zimbabwean lullaby.

Chris has also included the version of Bele Mama that he based his arrangement on.

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



YouTube has a recording of Don McLean singing Waters of Babylon:


Enjoy!

Hope to see you next month on Saturday 17 February - same time, same place.
