14th Jan 2009 - A Blog Revival?
Calling all Jubilate people! Remember the days when everyone blogged? I absolutely loved reading the debriefs after big events. And that's what it's all about, isn't it? Having your words heard by everyone else! So I'll go first. Check me out at: kurufurudo.blogspot.com And, if you want your blog publicised, drop a tag and let me know so I can include it in our list. Cheers, Cliff |

Christmas Midnight: Old skool offertory hymn, Clifford's favorite. This was supposed to be combined with another song, but there wasn't a need - wasn't as packed as it usually is during Christmas Midnight. =(

| When A Child Is Born |

Christmas Midnight: Yet another impromptu solo, this time, from Steffi. Irene on the emotional soliloquy, and Steffi again on the ending.

During the fellowship after mass, we will be promoting our choir, in a subtle manner. But mister Zac, how do we go about recruiting SUBTLY? How? We will attack from 2 fronts. 1st one will be the splendid performance we'll pull off during mass tomorrow, making sure that the parishioners will remember us and gain ourselves more recognition. 2nd. I will be splitting you guys up into pairs to mingle with the crowd during fellowship. Target those who do not belong to any ministry. How to know if people are not in the ministry? Attack YOUTHS. Most youth in our parish does not belong to any ministry. However, do not limit yourself to kids who are younger than 20. Go ahead and nail some adults if you can as well. Also if it helps, mingle with the age group range you're most comfortable with. Like for me, i love dealing with people my age group and If you like to deal with 30s, GO DEAL WITH THEM. You get the idea! Serious talk now. Rules: 1) SMILE (this is important. You may be not realised this, but this is the ONLY way you can break the natural awkwardness between 2 strangers. ONLY WAY) 2) Know the objective: RECRUITING CHOIR MEMBERS 3) Work around the objective. i) Begin by introducing yourself with a handshake, share with them about our choir (name of choir, how to pronounce or spell? 9am mass. Caroling during christmas) ii) Tell them we're looking for members. (e.g. we would love to have new faces such as you.) Address their concerns if any. Or maybe even tell them that they don't have to worry about not being capable enough to sing. Jubilate will groom you. iii) If they express no interest, PROMOTE CAROLING. tell them to at least join us for caroling (e.g. its really a whole new different Christmas experience if you would give us a chance to show you) If all goes well, tell them to join our choir this Sunday for TEA after 9am mass, just to hang around with us and come join us for practice too. They are not obliged to join the choir if they don't like it. And then TAKE THEIR HP NUMBER Zac |

I've put up a link under the "Sounds" tab to the midis. You can also click HERE. There are a list of zip files containing the midis for songs we have learned with parts. Each zip contains an NWC (Noteworthy composer) file and midis for each section. NWC files are files from a programme which will allow you to see the notes as the song is played. If you want, you can get a free trial version from HERE. But the midis alone should be enough. Feel free to ask me if you need other midis which are not there. :) |
