BARCHORDS Issue 41, Sept 7, 2016

7 Sep 2016 by Kathleen McGuire

We will meet again this week and next on the 11th Floor.

We had a lot of fun up there last week, singing while barristers waited for (or exited) the lift. The acoustics on the 11th floor are great!

THU 15 SEPTEMBER PERFORMANCE
Consensus of the choir members is that they would prefer to meet in the EVENING, so we will sing at the Essoign Club on Thursday September 15 at 5PM.

We will also meet as usual at lunchtime, 1-2PM.

Our program will include:

- Akanamandla (just the opening section)
- Lion Sleeps Tonight
- Come Again
- Inanay
- Sesere Eeye

We will conclude with a show tunes sing-along (distributing lyrics to our audience) singing with backing tracks, which are included below:

- Let’s Do it by Cole Porter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4knx8jDSC5A

- Wouldn’t It Be Loverly from My Fair Lady

- Do Re Mi from The Sound of Music: https://youtu.be/Ha9LHgFInAA

We will also try “Over the Rainbow”: https://youtu.be/f5apwhqIeMY?list=PLjXdiHdWla3YJPNssXVYp0BuF8ypGGhM3
