Mid-year break

Yesterday evening’s rehearsal was the last of term 2. The first regular rehearsal in term 3 is on  Tuesday 25 July. In  the meantime, we can look forward to the sectional rehearsals for the Puccini Mass with Wainuiomata Choir on Saturday 15 July at Central Baptist Church. The programme is:

  • 10:30 to 12:00: Men only
  • 12:00 to 13:00: Lunch (bring your own or buy it at one of many shops in the area).
  • 13:00 to 15:00: Men and women

Parking across the road in Wilson Parking is available at their normal weekend rate: $6 for 12 hours (pay & display). There is also parking available in Gilmer Terrace at the top of Boulcott Street—both Wilson & Tournament parks at a day rate of $3 or $4. Note that parking on the surrounding street is free on the weekend but there will probably be few vacant spaces and it is limited to 2 hours.

Wainuiomata Choir will continue to rehearse on Thursdays (7:15 pm at 106 Main Rd, Wainuiomata). Capital Choir members are welcome to join in.

The other pieces we are rehearsing at the moment are Faure’s Cantique de Jean Racine and (this is a secret) World from Shaky Places. Here’s a link to rehearsal files for Cantique:
