We met for our third rehearsal after the Half Term break, in our new venue on Tuesday 21 June 2022. We again had around 18 people come to the session. We sang Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious from Mary Poppins without words and music to start, then practiced Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head, Singing In The Rain and On This Night of a Thousand Stars, Buenas Aires, Another Suitcase in Another Hall, You Must Love Me, High Flying, Adored and Don't Cry For Me Argentina all from Evita. The session finished at 9.20pm.
We held a social evening at the Woolaston Inn on Saturday 27th March. We had a lovely meal followed by a light hearted quiz. Many thanks to Jenny for organising the event and to the staff at the restaurant.
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 2021). Congratulations from all the choir members.
The on line Carol Service held on Sunday 20th December 2020 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 presented an on line carol service for parishioners at Christmas 2020. The Bozeat Windmill Singers were pleased to contribute to the event. Given the lockdown then in place 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.

20th December 2020 at 6.00pm, using this you tube link.
