Sing the Stave

The giant keyboard came into its own, though 'playing' it upsidedown and in reverse was not a skill I had mastered! ....Must practise for next time....
Half of the course members were new to Arbutus so that was particularly pleasing, not that we don't love all our faithful returners, of course we do!

Comments included "As a musician I was amazed at the way the important aspects of singing were delivered. There was no overwhelming jargon or anyone looking embarassed."

"I feel more confident about rhythms in music and I was pleased that I knew more than I thought"

"I was pleased to do more singing than I expected"

Many thanks to you all for coming along, we are now looking forward to the next two courses, Hiawatha and Singing Allowed. Don't forget to enrol to secure your place soon. www.arbutusmusic.net
