Workshop 5 February 2005
A one day workshop held in our usual rehearsal venue of Nicolson Square Church, to give us time to work on the Maxwell Davies commission, and some of our charity concert repertoire. Jenny was joined in the afternoon by James Simpson, which gave us the chance to divide into sections, and also to experience a differnt approach to some of the music. Afterwards the majority of the choir adjourned to Kushi's, just round the corner, for an excellent Indian meal, before going home and falling asleep.....

Make a Wish carol singers
Neil Whyte, Susan and Joan Forrest sang carols while walkers went round the Meadows on 27th December in aid of 'Make a Wish'. The organisers felt they would be best dressed in Edwardian costumes......Better than being elves or fairies, which seemed to be the alternative.

Weekend Workshop Feb 2004
Great way to spend a wet weekend - good company, loads of music and hardwork, curry for lunch, a coffee shop on hand, and the luxury of enough time to work in depth on some of our pieces. What more could we ask?

CD Recording weekend March 2004
An extremely hard working weekend in St. Mary's church in Haddington, while we recorded our second CD, 'Voices of Joy'.
The Second Sopranos decided they needed a night out to bond as a section. Carol fixed it all up, but it was a secret till we got there - hence the title - Secret Second Sopranos Night Out. We went to Jongleurs, a stand-up comedy club which turns into a disco later on - a steep learning curve for some of us......
