Yes, we’re as sick as everyone else of the phrase The New Normal, but whatever that is, we are one step closer to it!
Last night, 18 months after our last normal rehearsal, we met and sang indoors. We went back to The New Clarence pub, now owned by a lovely gent named Ian, who on top of acquiring the pub right when lockdown 1.0 hit also runs a chilli sauce business.
While outdoors rehearsals had their charm in the height of summer heat, we definitely appreciated being able to hear each other – garden acoustics don’t really lend themselves to a cappella, and the post-rehearsal drink downstairs in the pub was a lovely added bonus.
If you fancy joining us, we are inviting new singers to come and have a go at learning a song with us at our Come and Sing course.
We will be learning One Direction’s ‘What Makes You Beautiful’ arranged for ladies’ voices. Don’t be afraid if you can’t read music as all the notes can be learned by ear at the rehearsals and from our MP3 learning tracks. We will all be learning it from scratch, so no fears about being behind!
We’ll be starting weekly for 4 weeks from 14th September, 7pm to 9pm at the New Clarence, 77-79 Charles Street, Hull, HU2 8DE.
We hope to see you there!
