Village Voice December 2013/January 2014 | Page 11

We are not a regular choir practising and singing week by week. We are simply a small group of singers who come together to contribute to St. Mary's Carol Service. The group has consisted of men and women, and occasionally a few youngsters. We are a mixed age and ability group. Some can’t read music, some don’t live in Old Alresford and many don’t attend St. Mary’s Church. Most people have many other interests in life, so we have just 5 practices in preparation. The common factor is that we all ENJOY SINGING. If you like singing Christmas Carols, how about joining the St. Mary’s Singers in preparation for the Carol Service in St. Mary’s Church on Sunday 22nd December at 5.00pm? The practices are in St. Mary's church, Old Alresford: Sundays, 1, 8 December from 5.00 - 6.00pm Sunday, 15 December from 6.00 - 7.00pm As we only have 3 practices remaining, singers must be able to commit themselves to all 3, including the final one on 15 December. Please contact Gail Straker for more information or if you would like to join. [TEL 732438 EMAIL: [email protected]] 9
