Did I mention our choir leader

We're starting to sound great as a choir and it's time to thank Tracey Callinan for her patience, professionalism and leadership in getting us to this point as a choir. Thanks Tracey. We have fun singing with you.

Rehearsal at BMEC

We love to sing


Here We Are

Workshop with Rachel Hore

After last rehearsal a few of us heard stories about Rachel's Wintersong workshop held in Leura July 2nd-4th. One lucky member of the Sounds Live Choir was able to get on the waiting list for the workshop and received a call from Rachel the week before the workshop saying there was one last place left. There were 91 keen vocalists at the Wintersong workshop, imprompu percussion performances and exhilerating singing. There is a second Wintersong workshop in August and you might be lucky enough to get on the waiting list for that one. Keep an eye on Rachel's website for next years workshops. They book out quickly.

The second Sounds Live Choir workshop with Rachel is Sunday 18th August 10am.

Party Invitation

The Sounds Live Choir is invited to join Sing Australia Bathurst for a dinner dance to celebrate their tenth birthday. The party is being held at Carrington House in Bathurst on Saturday 14th August at 6:30pm for a 7pm start. Cost is $50 per person for a night of grand vocal, gracious dancing and scrumptious food. Popular Bathurst band The Nodding Thistles will appear on the evening and there'll be lots of singing. Contact Sally or Bill on PO Box 988 Bathurst 2795 or email singbx10@gmail.com for more details. I'm sure the Sounds Live Choir can get a table together.

Acappella workshop in Bathurst

Just read the newsletter from Local Stages and was excited to see an acappella workshop is planned for Saturday August 7th at BMEC, 11am-12:3pm with The Fifth House. Cost is $25.

According to their website The Fifth House is a five-piece group from Sydney, Australia. Their unique style is a blend of world acappella music with a jazz texture. They create a truly distinctive sound that's immediately engaging and makes you FEEL GOOD just to hear.

Another great initiative from Local Stages for the Bathurst community.

For information about the workshop contact Box office 6333 6161 or visit BMEC.
