Hello choir!
I guess we have to face facts and accept that the end of August is upon us, and the regularly-scheduled-programming is about to return to us! I'm looking forward to this year of music making with everyone. I've been searching for lots of good music, and I've found plenty, but if you have ideas of something you've heard or would like to sing (again?) let me know and I'll try and work it in to the calendar.
Here you'll find links to the first 2 pieces that we'll be singing this year. An arrangement of "If We Ever Needed the Lord Before" (check out the awesome Take 6 arrangement here). As always, there are rehearsal recordings for each vocal part (with the other parts much softer in the background) as well as a version with all the parts heard more equally. Please download the appropriate parts and sing along!

But wait, there's more! You can also download rehearsal recordings of the NEXT piece we'll be working on, a lovely Kyrie by John Leavitt. This one is in 3 parts, Sop/Alto/Baritone. Here's a good YouTube performance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gljctAj_8Y
