I've been thinking about what we might do for music. Can I ask who else has some experience playing one or more instruments. Anybody who can play a brass instrument enough to do bugle calls? other instruments? How about some experience singing in harmony? Don't I remember Alice and Mary singing "Going to the Chapel" in close harmony. Could it be that I remember singing Morley's madrigal "Sing We and Chant It" in about '77 with people from earlier classes for some impromtu performance Doc set up? I could bring a couple of trombones, a couple of flutes (that I can play very little), recorders in 5 sizes from sopranino to bass, a classical guitar or two, a violin (that I definitely cannot play), and a wire strung harp (or two) that I can play a little. But I probably won't bring all that luggage unless we can imagine a use for them.
I can sing tenor some, though my voice has been cracking lately or bass maybe. I'm trying to figure out whether the cracking voice is an effect of age or of years without much singing. I'l try to find a couple of books of rounds that I have somewhere. How about "Here's a Health to All Them That we Love" ?
I can bang a tambourine (who can't?) although I don't have one. I have a bamboo flute although don't play it much. I have a kazoo... I love to sing but I think I wore you out, Jeff, about as much trying to teach me to harmonize as to squat down on my knees to be a cat..... I'm on a par with both.... but it was great fun..... You are the first person I remember bringing music to the barn..... Your Spanish guitar was thrilling! That "Here's to the Health" song sound great and any other rounds.... I think we could learn to harmonize with rounds.....maybe? Anon!

Dear Jeff,
I can sing, and I played a bugle in a drum and bugle corps in highschool. I completely freaked out my son when he was about 14 by picking up a bugle and playing taps. He had a whole new view of mom.
I know 'Here's a Health'! Also, some of Henry VIII's songs, like The Silver Swan.
Look forward to meeting you!

I love to sing, and love to sing with Alice. She can harmonize, I cannot, but I'm enthusiastic with the melody.
Love, and can't wait to meet up again!

Unless it's lip-synching in front of the mirror with my hair brush, I don't sing. I can't carry a tune at all. I got thrown out of church choir. But count me in for the chorus line. I took a tap dancing class in the third grade.

I can sing (although my kids hate it when I do). I am learning to play some ukulele from Rebekah, but am exceptionally limited.... I fake the harmonica, but I do at least own one.

I can play the clarinet, and can use that ability to play recorders or other wind instruments.
I can't sing at all, but I will: you can't really stop me.

Mary and I were and still are on call as The Everly Sisters and clone Patsy Clinesshe's melodious, and I'm harmonious.
It might be possible for me to bring a Canadian squeeze box, and know a little how to play it by August if you think that would fit in, Jeff. (Please say yes!)
Love, Alice

Music: I used to know all the words to "Big Bad John" by Jimmy Dean (may he r.i.p.) but someone told me that's not really singing. In fact, someone's said that for every song I learned.
Seriously, I want to hear Mary & Alice sing "Raison D'etre" one more time before I r.i.p. (i hope i got the billing right?)
