Announcement from Andrew to Groove members (Self explanatory)
Dear Mark,Malcolm Neale would like us to take part in his Christmas concert at
Holywood Parish Church on Tuesday 13 December 2005.
The whole programme will involve their Parish choir, Ulster Brass,
possibly Michael McHale (Clandeboye Young Musician of the Year 2004;
ex-Methody pianist who has performed with Barry Douglas) and a
chamber choir.
He would like the chamber choir to do two 15 mins slots, one in each
half, plus a tutti carol in each half.
The possibilities are many. My personal feeling is that it would be
an ideal for Groove, in the 2nd half, to perform the entire Radio
Ulster programme in preparation for the broadcast on Friday 16th.
As to the first half, I would suggest inviting Lynda, Susie and Jenny
("Groove and Friends") to do another 15 mins, possibly recycling
stuff we did at St John's Donegore such as "Have yourself a Merry
Little Xmas" and maybe even "Santa Claus is coming to town" etc. etc.
I wonder whether Philip might be interested in arranging one or two
of his carols for Groove n Friends and Ulster Brass (who consist of
two trumpets, horn, trombone and tuba)...
Fee £50 a head.
It would be good to secure the services of Richard on the lovely
Holywood Parish organ with which he is intimately aquainted...
Come back to me if you have any questions... And direct Philip to me
if he has any questions re Ulster Brass...
Best,
A.
