Feature Article - September 13, 2007Exciting Season for Tay Valley Choir
September 10th marks the beginning of the fall season for the Tay Valley Community Choir.This choir of men and women started singing together in 2004. What started as a small group of individuals who shared a love of song, has grown to a lively, friendly group of over 20 people.
Drawing its members from across Tay Valley and the surrounding area, the choir is led by well-known Perth vocalist/music director and music therapist, Nicola Oddy, and assisted and accompanied by Ann McMahon, former teacher and director of several area choirs. The musical selections cover a broad range of styles from contemporary to standards arranged in three and four part harmonies, with members deciding which parts they are most comfortable singing. This relaxed approach to singing includes vocal exercises and performance techniques.
Last year the choir performed at events in Maberly and Perth, and for residents of Lanark Lodge. This non-auditioned choir practises every Monday from 6 to 7:30 p.m. New members are welcomed.
