New Season, New Repertoire, New Pinkies!

If you hadn't noticed, I figure you had better realise that the Winter 2008/2009 season will be starting this Sunday. Welcome back returning Pinkies, and an even warmer welcome to those who are thinking of joining too. Get in touch with Liang if you are intending to give singing a shot!

We also have this season's repertoire, which, as I alluded to before, is the first one where we are actually learning proper Christmas music. Most of our winter concerts are not particularly seasonal, so this makes a welcome, if slightly conventional departure. As usual though, we're not just trying out boring old carols. No, we have a bit of classical, a bit of pop and a bit of rock, and to top it all off, Michael De's magic Christmas megamix.
