A selection of jottings from our original poet-in-residence, Jill Laikin and our Ladies Choir orator, Stella Bowman, as well as Michael Grinter and other members who have taken the time to write them down.
Jill Laikin joined Elmbridge Choir on its inception night in September 2005 and since then has been entertaining our members with her unique brand of writing after every concert and event that we perform at or stage. Jilly tends to use words from our songs to write a review of the particular event so it may be that at first you won't understand the jottings, but if you take a careful look at the songs performed, and think about the lyrics of those songs, it will suddenly make sense.
Stella joined Elmbridge Ladies Choir at inception in March 2009 and quickly made her mark in the choir. Stella has written several reviews and we hope to hear much more from her in future!
Michael Grinter is a celebrated actor, singer and radio presenter. He joined Elmbridge Choir in 2006 as a tenor and seven years on he is a highly regarded member of the choir. Michael writes articles for newspapers and national magazines from time to time and his writing style is factual, but witty and informative.
You know what it's like...you come onto the website to find
something, have a look around and end up thinking 'It's been a while
since I've updated and blogged!'
The Elmbridge Music Festival last week was a fantastic experience for me, getting to work with both EYM and the Big Band as well as take the Ladies Choir out onto the stage...a busy day! ....
