Hi everyone, hope you are all well.
Is anyone still here???

Anyhoo, Alexis and I have recently been working with a few singers to start up a new performance choir & we are ready to add some extra voices.

We rehearse most Wednesday evenings in Edinburgh (Brewhemia) between 6:30-8:30pm.

Interested? Just let me know and I can send more info x

How I fell (back) in love with singing | Stephanie Convery

Great article about the joys of singing in a choir from The Guardian
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/jan/09/how-i-fell-back-in-love-with-singing

I had forgotten how it felt to sing with other people, and the sudden rush of memory and pure joy was like a kick to the heart

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

Blood Cancer UK in Scotland

The totals are in - at the Edinburgh and Tatton Park Foodies Festivals we've raised a fantastic £823.02 (and 19.49 euros)!
We couldn't have raised this fantastic amount without the support of our wonderful Bloodwise volunteers, the amazing choirs and groups who performed for free, the audiences for donating and, of course, the Foodies Festival for choosing Bloodwise as the charity partner for these spectacular events.

Supporters like you help fund the world-class research that is advancing our understanding of blood cancer, improving treatments and increasing survival rates. We fund research across the UK and the reason we do this is because we believe in a world without blood cancer. The only way we can achieve this is with more research and that’s why we continue to fund over 1,000 researchers working in over 200 projects across the UK. Thank you so much for your fantastic support!
