[Cynnabar] Caroling at Ann Arbor Christian School Demo

[Carol Perry Lagemann via Barony]

Hello, Barony!

As you know, we have been invited to give a demo at the Ann Arbor Christian
School on December 8 at 7:00 pm. As part of the demo, we will be singing
some medieval/Renaissance Christmas carols.

Everyone who would like to sing is invited to join us. No musical
experience is necessary, but it is helpful if you are old enough to read
and focus for the entire rehearsal. :)

Rehearsals will be held at my apartment on six evenings in November and
early December. We will select our repertoire the first time we meet
(November 3). I'm planning to make my own arrangements of the songs we'll
use, so you do not need to purchase any music. However, if you already own
a copy of *The Shorter New Oxford Book of Carols
<https://www.amazon.com/Shorter-New-Oxford-Book-Carols/dp/0193533243>*,
please bring it with you. The rehearsal schedule is located in this folder
<https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BxP4zBPz3EPaX0QwRk1HWjJlTUk?usp=sharing>,
where I will also upload PDFs of scores and other helpful materials.

These rehearsals are primarily for preparing for the performance at the
School, but if we enjoy ourselves, we may investigate other opportunities
to sing together, such as caroling in the community or at winter SCA events.

*If you're interested, please send me the following information by October
27:*

   - your name
   - what voice part you usually sing (soprano, alto, tenor, or bass), if
   you know
   - your favorite pre-1600 Christmas carol, if you have one
   - whether you can attend the performance on December 8
   - whether you can attend at least three of the rehearsals


It is best if you can attend at least three rehearsals, but if you cannot,
I may be able to schedule some time to work on the pieces with you
individually.

I'm looking forward to it!

Best,
Kasha Alekseeva
