Concert for Stepping Stones

Our choir's big annual gig is on Sept 19th, and as usual all proceeds go to a great cause - this time it's Stepping Stones Nigeria and we want to try to raise $10,000.

All of Stuart's choirs perform, the Woolaware High concert band is really brilliant, and there's usually a mass choir at the end. It's always a great night.

Tickets are $25 and $15 concession.

A great clip from YouTube - As usual the Africans are the best singers.

Bobby Goes Pentatonic

This is a great vid - you may need to wait a while for it to upload. Bobby McFerrin (the "Don't Worry, Be Happy" guy) is making the point that the pentatonic scale is universal and innate. The pentatonic scale is do re mi so la.

I wish the audience had gone with him when he tried them on a harmony - ah well!

Bobby does all kinds of great stuff - check the video bar on the right of this blog - it sometimes has his version of Ave Maria.
