What a brilliant rehearsal just now! As final arrangements are being made for next Monday’s gig at City Hall we worked through the Abba Medley, polished off Proud Mary and then reprised We will Rock You. All but two of our singers for Monday were there and we had a brilliant session. The tenors and basses were promoted to the front row / put under closer supervision (delete as appropriate) and as AmyBeth said later on WhatsApp
'Brilliant rehearsal guys! It’s sounding really fabulous! All your practising is paying off! Happy conductor.' Note to singers - practise singing in a less posh English / Welsh / Scottish accent for Saderdai.
