Hi Karen

Thanks for that!

The interview went well - I think! They did ask me some hideous questions though.... for example: What contributes towards the development of an identity and how might that be studied?!?!

Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow, it feels like ages after our week off! Barbara - are you still ok to bring the score for the Boars Head Carol?

Love Cat xx

Hello everyone, especially janet.
I promised janet I would bring her a copy of words next Sunday. I have printed some off, but I will not be there so many apologies.
if someone could print a set for Janet, I would appreciate it.

Have a good rehearsal, and see you in a few weeks.

Since Lewis and I live a few hundred yards from the Village Hall in Kennington,
where the ceilidh is, we'd like to invite you all to come round any time after
7pm on that day for our 'open house'.

We'll supply mulled wine (not too strong, after all we have to sing!) and mince
pies, any donations either to the alcohol or to the food gratefully received and
shared :-)

Party will continue till we decide to go on to the ceilidh, and then anyone who
fancies stopping for a nightcap on the way home most welcome.

Address is 115 Kennington Road OX1 5PE. If you're coming from Oxford to the
village hall, you pass our house on the left on your way along the road. If you
were getting the No 35 bus to the ceilidh, if you got off at the houses that are
being rebuilt, about 100 yards back down the road from the village hall, and
then walked back towards Oxford for about 200 yards, you'd be outside our house.

Hope to see lots of you there.

Val

For your delectation and delight, I added a recording from Loreena McKennit into
our Christmas folder. I can't remember whether we're planning to do it in unison
or have parts, this one is in 3 parts which will almost certainly be different,
but it's very pretty and may provide joy and inspiration anyway. Enjoy!

Obviously as it's a commercial recording, please don't share it with others,
this is just for us. Let me know if it's breaking some awful rule, if it is I'll
take it off again, and I'll take it off after Christmas anyway.

Hi all

Good rehearsal tonight, well done everyone! Just a reminder - next
Sunday is our last rehearsal before our million Christmas gigs :) We
will be singing: Lights and Virtues, Sweet Bells, The King and Gaudete.

Gigs are as follows: (This is updated info from previous emails so
please read)

Sunday 6th Dec
Carols Workshop at the Castle 1-2.30. This is in the Key Learning
Centre - downstairs.
Carols at the Castle afterwards - we're on at 4ish
Folk Carol Service at URC Church 6pm (or 6.30??) start but we'll be on
towards the end. The whole thing doesn't normally last longer than an
hour.

Saturday 12th Dec
Singing during break at Oxfolk Ceilidh, Kennington Village Hall about
9.30. All welcome to come for whole ceilidh - free tickets for choir
members but groupies will have to pay. Val and Lewis have invited us
round for mulled wine before and/or after the ceilidh. Ceilidh starts
at 8pm, choir arrive at 9pm at the latest please. www.oxfolk.org.uk

Sunday 13th Dec
Concert at Holywell Music Room - we are the supporting act for
Kerfuffle, who are on the Oxford leg of their 'Lighten the Dark' tour.
http://www.kerfuffleonline.co.uk/
We'll be on around 8.30 so if we can meet at the Holywell at 7.45 we
can have a bit of a warm up and run-through if necessary. We may be a
few people short (although hopefully not!) so might need to do some
part reshuffling!

Friday 18th Dec
Singing at Christmas Market at the Castle 5pm. Meet outside Krispy
Kreme (our spiritual home) by 4.45 latest.

**New files uploaded to yahoo**

I've put Lights and Virtues up - me singing the whole lot. I haven't
put individual parts up I'm afraid as it wasn't very good and I
thought it might have hindered more than helped! ;o) In my defence I
was trying not to wake up Faye and am still recovering from my bad
throat, gig last night and hour of hard singing this evening!

My version of The King was if possible even worse, so I have uploaded
a synthesized version sung by my computer - it will give you an idea
at least. I have also uploaded a picture of the sheet music if that's
any help.

Penny has my copy of Lights and Virtues and has promised me faithfully
that she will scan it in and either upload it or email to me to
upload. Sweet Bells is up there from last year so the only one missing
is Gaudete. I'll try and get round to doing that this week but it was
sounding great so I'm not worried. I'm not worried about any of them
actually, as it was all sounding good tonight with one practice in hand!

Hello Cat

Glad all went well last night. If plane had been on time I might have made it.

Re Castle events, will there be a flier for it. I could give it a plug at Wheatley Choral  in the hope they could come and see how the other half sings!

See you next week

I'd like as many people as poss to come to the workshop but it it's difficult then it's ok to just come to the gig. The reason I'd like people at the workshop is that it will make the teaching much quicker if I have people who are confident on the parts, therefore we will achieve a lot more, it will sound better, and people will feel much happier and more likely to want to join the choir  ;o)

Hi all
 
I've got another gig in the afternoon of the 18th Dec which is now finishing much later than she originally said, so I may be end up arriving a teensy bit late for the Christmas Market. Can I trust you all not to spend the *entire* kitty on Krispy Kremes before I get there? ;o)

Carols Workshop at the Castle 1-2.30. This is in the Key Learning
Centre - downstairs.
Carols at the Castle afterwards - we're on at 4ish
Folk Carol Service at URC Church 6pm (or 6.30??) start but we'll be on
towards the end. The whole thing doesn't normally last longer than an
hour.

Saturday 12th Dec
Singing during break at Oxfolk Ceilidh, Kennington Village Hall about
9.30. All welcome to come for whole ceilidh - free tickets for choir
members but groupies will have to pay. Val and Lewis have invited us
round for mulled wine before and/or after the ceilidh. Ceilidh starts
at 8pm, choir arrive at 9pm at the latest please. www.oxfolk.org.uk

Sunday 13th Dec
Concert at Holywell Music Room - we are the supporting act for
Kerfuffle, who are on the Oxford leg of their 'Lighten the Dark' tour. http://www.kerfuffleonline.co.uk/
We'll be on around 8.30 so if we can meet at the Holywell at 7.45 we
can have a bit of a warm up and run-through if necessary. We may be a
few people short (although hopefully not!) so might need to do some
part reshuffling!

Friday 18th Dec
Singing at Christmas Market at the Castle 5pm. Meet outside Krispy
Kreme (our spiritual home) by 4.45 latest.

I've put Lights and Virtues up - me singing the whole lot. I haven't
put individual parts up I'm afraid as it wasn't very good and I
thought it might have hindered more than helped! ;o) In my defence I
was trying not to wake up Faye and am still recovering from my bad
throat, gig last night and hour of hard singing this evening!

My version of The King was if possible even worse, so I have uploaded
a synthesized version sung by my computer - it will give you an idea
at least. I have also uploaded a picture of the sheet music if that's
any help.

Penny has my copy of Lights and Virtues and has promised me faithfully
that she will scan it in and either upload it or email to me to
upload. Sweet Bells is up there from last year so the only one missing
is Gaudete. I'll try and get round to doing that this week but it was
sounding great so I'm not worried. I'm not worried about any of them
actually, as it was all sounding good tonight with one practice in hand!
