From Nick re wedding 6th September

Dear All,

Here is the list of music for the wedding on Saturday 6th September.

 

Introit ( 15 minutes or so before the Brides entry)

Order to be confirmed by Ed

 Ave Maris Stella - Grieg

If ye Love me     - Tallis

The Lord is my Shepherd - Goodall

Ubi Caritas - Gjeilo

My Spirit Sang - Finzi

 

Processional - Brides Entry

Vivaldi - Gloria in Excelsis Deo

 

Register Signing

Beati quorum via - Stanford

Locus Iste - Bruckner

 

Most of you now have a copy of Ubi Caritas. If you did not get a copy the other night I will have them with me tomorrow and on Monday. I still have some CDs for those that have not received one.

On Monday we will also have copies the Gloria, If ye love me and the other pieces that the Chamber choir have sung before but you may handed your copies in e.g. Locus Iste and Finzi. We are still working on sourcing The Goodall..if you have your own copy perhaps you could let us know.

I think Ed is going to try and run through the repertoire before the end of term and also try and arrange a rehearsal in late August or very early September.

Thank you all very much for agreeing to take part in this special day. I am going to give Ed some money to buy everyone a drink afterwards and we will also make a contribution to choir funds as a thank you

Kind regards

Nick

 

PLEASE NOTE: rehearsals to the end of term are all happening

You will recall that we squeezed in 2 extra rehearsals mid week to get in as much prep as possible before our concert on the 6th July, and that the intention was that these would be instead of the last 2 rehearsals in the term.

However there is a CHANGE OF PLAN and all rehearsals are now going to go ahead, so after our concert there will be rehearsals on:
7th July
14th July
21st July
during which we will look at music for Bruges and for the wedding in September, among other things.

Baby Milner is here!

Many congratulations to Ed and Helen who are proud parents of a brand new baby boy - named Leo.  Born today at 2.41pm - 9lb 12ozs.  Helen and Leo both doing well.
