The third meeting of this term in our new venue was yesterday (21 September). We rehearsed one of Anna's rounds - Dona Nobis Parcem, On the Street Where You Live from My Fair Lady, You've Got A Friend and finished with Look at the World. Paul again brought the sound desk and two speakers in to give the piano a much better sound distribution around the hall.
Six choir members sang at the wedding of Marian Brown’s daughter Emma on 10 July, under Covid 19 restrictions.
Some good news amidst all the gloom. The choirs pianist Sue Partridge - Underwood was awarded the British Empire Medal for services to Music in the 2021 New Years Honours list. She was interviewed on Radio Northampton this morning (2 January). Congratulations from all the choir members.
The on line Carol Service held on Sunday 20th December at 6pm, from St Marys Bozeat is still available to view. To access click here.
The church group of Bozeat, Wollaston, Easton Maudit and Strixton is presenting an on line carol service for parishioners. The Bozeat Windmill Singers are pleased to be contributing to the event. Given the lockdown and the infection risk to choir members, we recorded two carols virtually. They were Hark the Herald Angels Sing, and While Shepherds Watch Their Flocks By Night.
