Audience Choir Project (Completed)

This year we planned a special Graduation gift for our graduates and their parents - an Audience Choir! It was a great success and added a beautiful moment to the grad. Check out the details below to see how we did it.

"Sing Gently" Secret Instructions for Parents

Join us in creating a secret, unforgettable moment together.

​

HERE IS THE CONCEPT

 

One of our performances for Grad will be a song called 'Sing Gently'. It will be performed halfway through the ceremony.

After the piece concludes the conductor (Brendan McGibbon) will turn around and ask parents to stand up to sing. 

 

Lyrics will be projected on the stage screen and those of you who are so inclined can sing together to our students.

 

1. To practice listen to the 'Sing Gently' vocal guide track below and sing along with the backing. Your part begins at 3m15s.

Your Lyrics are..

​

May we sing together, always, May our voice be soft

Sing, sing gently, always
Sing, sing as one,

as one, as one, as one

Singing gently as one

2. Practice over and over until the song becomes part of you. Remember if we all do this our voices will blend together in the hall. Teachers, Parents (600+ singers) It will be a magic moment (and if we can keep this secret it will be even more special).

​

PRACTICE SESSIONS

​

Sign up here for May 11 or May 12 Parent only sessions (Its not too late to register) (Note: In the end we had over 200 parents commit to singing before the event)

​

​

If singing is not your thing then thats ok, its not for everyone. Take a video, hold up a candle, stand with the singers.
