Surrey Harmony Women’s Barbershop Chorus

Want to Sing? - Week 5

Mary had a little lamb Its fleece was white as snow...

No we haven't gone quite as far back as the nursery for week 5 of the singing course, but we did hear from our Choreographer Elaine on how to tell a story as we sing.

Elaine also reinforced Valerie's message about good posture
She told everyone to imagine they were telling a story to a young child, or as she put it " go all the way to blithering idiot".

Elaine also reinforced Valerie's message about good posture and keep the whole body relaxed during any performance. Singing is a whole body experience.

 

This week the participants tried their hand at Choreography for the first time under Elaine's humorous, but gentle guidance.

Good job ladies!

Just two weeks to go until our songs are performed in public for the first time.  

It was music down this week as well, and Valerie was able to see more of everyone's lovely lifted faces.

Just two weeks to go until our songs are performed in public for the first time.
