Hello
I have always liked this song from Porgy and Bess. I am thinking of what to do for Stalybridge. I "sing" this to myself anyway, so wondered if, with some help from my tutor, I would be able to achieve singing it in July.

What do you think? Is it too ambitious for a Gde 1 (hopefully!!) singer? All comments/advice welcome.

Thank you.

OOh does this mean that if Hubby and I get to Stalybridge there's the chance of another OLTVA ensemble.

(I'd only "count" as an accompanist, as alothough I continue to learn as an adult, I learnt the bulk of my music between 1977-1991)

As it's not a forum only event then I don't think that the OLTVA would be entirely appropriate.
Sorry.
