New Term Arrangements

The new term starts this week. The plan is to continue choir activities right throught these school holidays and I have given us all a break at the half way mark after the MMC.  There won't be choir practice on 8th or 9th of August (unless something comes up).

Fees are 11 weeks @ $12 / $10 conc. or $ 110 / $88 conc per term. Don't forget you can pay by half term if you would rather.

Owing to some additional commitments for me, Indigo Singers have offered to change their night from Friday to Tuesday. So Indigo and Making Waves will combine this term on a Tuesday night. We are pretty much doing the same songs at the moment so it will be quite easy to make this arrangement work.

Regards to all,
Sue.

Australia Day Award to Paola Kavisha Mazella AM

"Singing the Songs of Compassion" is the headline in The Age announcing Kavisha Mazella's Member of the Order of Australia amongst the Australia Day Awards.

Those of us who frequent the many events where she is present, most recently the Daylesford Singers Festival, know well enough her bubbly personality and the depth of emotion in her singing. She sings and conducts the song she was commissioned to write for the Centenary of Women's Suffrage which you can visit here.

She is honoured for her "service to the performing arts as a singer and songwriter, and to the community , through the development of musical projects promoting awareness of multicultural, refugee and indigenous experiences".

Here is the link to the little article in The Age, however the lovely photo of her is not here. Pity!

All the best,
Ros.
