We had an excellent final practise for the year, with a quartet of us warming up then working pretty solidly on a couple of pieces.

Four of us for singing today, and as Katherina Weyssin has been studying up on dynamics of the time, we got to make a start on introducing these into our singing.

In attendance: Patrick Bowman (Seneschal), Shannon Wanty (Herald),  Katherine Davies (Webwright), Wendy Rowsell (Chatelaine), Nora Czaykowski (Reeve) (arrived 8.05pm during November Crown discussion), Angela Wells

Apologies: Eleanor Hall (steward of Crescent Fence), Chantelle Gerrard (A&S Officer), Rob McIntyre (Marshal)

Here is the likely Ball List for Canterbury Faire in 2014. Many thanks to Her Excellency Isabel Maria!

Just a trio of us today, but certainly an industrious trio - we put in some solid work, and produced some nice harmonies.

A good mix of harder and easier matieral this evening:

Last night we started studying Saviolo's recomendations for and against left handed fencers.

For the original instructions see the fourth day of Saviolo's treatices.

Just a few of us in attendance today, but a good practice with the challenge of learning some new verses for one of our favourite rounds, and starting to work on a completely new song as well!

With a few of our regulars away today, singing was a little quieter than normal - but still mostly melodious.

A decent practise with a lot of things sounding really quite nice today. It's getting easier to find notes off one note as well.
