Summer School of Music
The Lighter Side Choral Course
Susan Hollingworth assisted by Tim Uglow
Yet another wild selection of fun pieces - lots of foot stomping stuff with plenty of pure sentimental nostalgia to keep emotions balanced. Several pieces could challenge the hardiest regular but enough of the repertoire is very approachable to ensure our concert will be the success we have come to expect and enjoy.
Be prepared for hard work! This course is not for the timid conservative nor the enthusiastic “sing-along”; a good ear and a secure sense of rhythm are essential and a loud costume for the concert will help!

‘Tis the Last Rose of Summer arr. Lawson
Eriskay Love Lilt arr. Carrington
