Our Next Performance

The ParkinSongsters Sing Spring
Monday 28th April 3-4.30pm
St John’s Church Hall, Brittany Rd, St Leonards on Sea, TN38 0RD

The ParkinSongsters’ Spring Concert takes place on Monday 28th April 3-4.30pm at St John’s Church Hall, Brittany Rd, St Leonards on Sea, TN38 0RD.

The group will perform favourite songs from their repertoire: traditional, humorous, and light-hearted, plus a smattering of poetry.

For this concert they are delighted to be joined by Rattlebag, the local all-ladies acappella folk group, who will weave their vocal magic via old & contemporary songs, with a hint of May in the air.

Tea and cake follows the singing. Entrance is free, but donations are invited in aid of Parkinson’s UK. NEW, in addition, there will be a Table Sale before and after the singing of pre-loved items. All proceeds to Parkinson’s UK

About Our Concerts 

Why We Stage Concerts
Whilst singing together as a group helps consolidate breathing and voice exercises, performing for an audience adds another layer to the benefits of singing, giving us something to aim for. Nobody is obliged to take part in the concerts; it’s entirely your choice.

Rehearsals 
Our Monday sessions are a mix of exercises and singing songs old and new, many of which are incorporated into concerts. So in effect we are always “rehearsing”.

Our Audience 
Having an audience to perform to is all part of the fun of putting on a show, so we encourage members to invite family and friends and anyone who’d like to come and hear the work we do.

Attending a Concert
It’s free to attend a concert but donations are invited to support the work of Parkinson’s UK. After the concert, there is a tradition of delicious cake and tea.

The songs are going round in my brain today, especially What a Wonderful World – Foggy, Foggy Dew – You’ll Never Walk Alone – Yellow Submarine – Hippopotamus song. Wonderful choices!
