After singing to more than 150 audience members, we’re absolutely thrilled by the support we received last night. Thank you to all who came out and took a chance on Sirens. We hope to see you again!

We would also like to thank:

• The administration and congregation of Trinity United Church for their continued support and for the use of the church for both our rehearsals and performance
• Frances McBurnie for her beautiful piano playing – always a treat!
• Branden Kelly for undertaking the bodhrán drum and congas for us
• The Nova Scotia Choral Federation, Saskatchewan Choral Federation, Manitoba Choral Association and the Canadian Music Centre for the loan of scores used in tonight’s performance
• Alana Reddin for designing our beautiful logo and Angela Deighan for taking our group photo
• Don Fraser for recording our performance

Sirens next performance is Friday, June 7th. We will be special guests at Le Ragazze’s annual spring performance – details coming soon!

Any of you that have been involved with putting together a performance know the hours of work that go into making it happen. On Sunday, the Sirens ladies had their last full rehearsal. We started the day by singing at Trinity United Charlottetown’s service, treated ourselves to a nice brunch and then spent four hours working through our entire program. For the first time we sang with our lovely collaborative pianist, Frances McBurnie, as well as Branden Kelly who will be contributing some percussive sounds. It was one of those rehearsals where everything locked into place – our own Jennifer Cullen delcared, “well, we have a concert!”

We’re very proud of the product that has resulted from hours of hard work – we can’t wait to share! Come out to cheer us on Sunday, May 5 at 7:30 PM. We’ll be singing at Trinity United, Charlottetown; on the corner of Richmond and Prince.
