On Saturday, April 5th, some members of the chorus took a field trip to Jazz At Lincoln Center called "What Is A Jazz Singer?" Those who attended can use this space to provide their comments. Here are some ideas to start you off:
Step 1 in getting this website to be really awesome: I posted audio clips of our chorus rehearsal last week. (I posted the Monday/Tuesdsay Chorus and will try to post the Wednesday/Thursday this weekend). Listening to it again today, I'm very proud of our singers. One song posted here is called "O'Desayo." It has a part in it two different groups are singing different parts at the same time. This is note easy to do!!!! We still need to do more work on this, but it is coming along very well. GREAT JOB CHORUS MEMBERS!!!Check out the clips (http://www.freewebs.com/mcgorrymusic/chorus.htm) and post a comment. KEEP IT POSITIVE. If you find something that you think needs work, use language like this..."I think we should work on ......." or "We can try to blend together more here...."-Mr. McGorry
This is exciting stuff! I will keep you posted on this site. You can check the date for upcoming, music-related field trips. You can check out some of the cool links I've provided. If you want to know more about recorder, keyboard, drums, or chorus check out the links on those pages.Have you had a class experience where we were learning a song on recorder and you just couldn't understand it? Do you wish you had a one-on-one lesson to help you? Well, I'm working on it! Soon, I plan to post some videos of short lessons on how to play a particular song. I'll have them for recorder and for keyboard. So, speak up!!! Add your comments, questions, or just say hello on this page. Keep it positive!-Mr. McGorry
