See the review for last
Monday’s event. The jazz-singing class is too numerous for all of us to strut
our stuff on the same evening, so the second set of ‘voices’ performed last
night, and they made a really good sound and entertained us mightily. Once again, I cannot comment on my
colleagues, but it was lovely to sit back and listen to others, without having
the responsibility of performing myself, without having to decide on which key
to sing in, the timing, the style of song, be it swing, ballad or bossa, the
intros and outros etc. As I said previously,
there’s more to jazz-singing than you might think.
Readers may be interested to know our
repertoire for this term. The 5 songs we
covered were: All The Things You Are; If
You Never Come To Me; Get Out Of Town; Darn That Dream; and Four.
We rounded off proceedings with mass singing of Four. We thoroughly enjoyed
doing this, but I'm not sure what Miles Davis would have made of it!
Thanks again to Lindsay
and the Blue Jazz Quintet. See you all
next term!
Ann Alex.
