Amici subscriptions for 2018
Dear Members,
The time has come to pay your membership fee for spring 2018 if you did not buy an annual subscription at the beginning of last term. As with last term there is a £1 discount if you pay early, no later than the second rehearsal on January 24th. The two members who have already paid £25 can have £1 repaid at the next rehearsal.
Please use the online payment system as this greatly reduces the administration load on the Amici committee. To do this please follow this link. The system will ask you to log in or create a new account. You will be asked for your email address (please always use the same email, or if you do have to change it contact admin@canterburycantatatrust.co.uk) and your password. If you have forgotten your password follow the "Forgotten your password" link the enable you to set a new password.
Do you want to check whether you are already covered by an annual subscription? If you think you paid online then follow this link and select "Orders" to view all your previous online orders. If in doubt please contact me at admin@canterburycantatatrust.co.uk. If you did not use the online system please ask Steph or Anthea at the next rehearsal.
Many thanks
Ben

Details of concert on Dec 13th and dates for next year
Cari Amici,
A very productive rehearsal yesterday.We worked very hard on both Brahms and Berlioz. Whilst singing both in English it offered an exciting insight into Brahms German Requiem. Challenging, very beautiful and so different from Mozart and Jenkins. (Still people commenting on the impact of the November 11 performance).
Next weeks meeting will take the form of an open rehearsal together with a community carol sing! The schedule will be:
Setting up/helping team 16.45. Seats from hall to chancel.
Amici arrive from 17.20
Warm up and rehearsal Brahms, Berlioz, Jenkins, Irish Blessing, Christopher Gower
Guests arrive for 18.00 sitting in nave
Programme open rehearsal/carols
Oh How lovely are thy Dwellings Brahms
Carols
God shall wipe away all tears Jenkins
