Welcome Willi Zwozdesky to our CoroVoce Rehearsal!

We are excited to Welcome Willi Zwozdesky, composer and arranger, from Long and McQuade Music to our rehearsal on February 28.  Please review Wood River and We Are One really well in order to be prepared for this week!  Auditions for solos for Song for the Mira will also take place this week!  Instead of memorizing the verses, we will have soloists learn the six verses so if you are interested in doing a solo, please see Ms. Speakman next week and be prepared to stay a bit later to audition.

EXTRA LONG REHEARSALS COMING UP!

We ask that for our March 7 and 14 rehearsals students stay until 6:00 p.m. instead of 5:15.  We are feeling the effects of the missed rehearsal and would like to cover all our repertoire so students can work on them over Spring Break.  If you are not able to stay, or need to leave earlier, we will understand.

T SHIRT DESIGN CONTEST!

The t-shirt designs will be up on a chart for you to vote on this week.  Please choose your favourite design and place a check mark below your choice.  Vote only once!  If you did not get sized for your shirt, please see Ms. Minichiello this week for sure!

Make sure you’ve saved the date for our big concert!  It’s Wednesday, April 17, at 6:30 p.m. at Michael J Fox Theatre.  Tickets will be available soon!

Our school tour date is the next day!  On Thursday, April 18, Corovoce will be performing at 4 schools around the District! At this time, we are tentatively booked to sing at Aubrey, Cascades and Brantford.  If you would like your school to be the 4th school, let us know! ps…there is no rehearsal that afternoon! lol

We are looking forward to working with Willi this week!  See you then!

Happy Family Day Weekend!

Hello Everyone!

We hope the cancellation of Thursdays rehearsal allowed everyone a chance to get home safely!  Next week we will be working on our mass number, “We Are One”, by Brian Tate, so please take a moment to look over some YouTube performances of this number.  We will also continue working on Wood River, We Rise Again, Song for the Mira, Liza, Rise, Shine and Bridge Over Troubled Water.  A very ambitious task for next rehearsal!

T-Shirt design submissions will be accepted next week as well!

We hope you and your family enjoy a restful, memorable long weekend!  We look forward to seeing everyone next week, February 21!

Sincerely,

The CoroVoce Team

Happy Snowy Valentines Week!

Happy Valentine’s Week Everyone!

We are working hard on a very ambitious repertoire this season so please keep working on the songs we focused on last week.  We will introduce a new song this week, “We Are One”, by local musician Brian Tate.  This is the mass number for our concert on April 17.  You’re welcome to look it up online so you are more prepared for this week.

T-shirt design submissions are due this Thursday!  If Ms. Minichiello did not size you for your shirt last week, please see her this week.

Cupid may be dropping by as well with a sweet treat for all the good little singers in our choir!

Keep practising CoroVoce!

恭喜发财 / 恭喜發財 Happiness and Prosperity in the Year of the Pig

Hello Everyone!  We know that many of our students will be celebrating the Lunar New Year and we wish you all well!  We had another fantastic rehearsal and accomplished much in our sectionals.  We will resume sectionals next week, adding on a few new pieces.  Please work on what was done yesterday in your sectionals so we can move on quickly.

The t-shirt design submission needs to be in by February 14.  We are looking forward seeing them!

We wish Ms. Pritchard well on her trip to New York.  She will return February 14.  We are grateful for Ms. Loo who will take her place next week!
