Zulu Workshop
We were very lucky in summer 2018 to host a workshop led by the troupe of Zulu singers and dancers who do a Summer Season at Africa Alive and Banham Zoo. They are incredible musicians, wonderful singers and drummers. They taught us songs that we were abel to add to our repertoire and have since performed. We welcomed friends from the village of Gissing which made the evening even more special. Our thanks to Gissing Singer Andy who organised the event for us. We're hoping for a return visit in 2019
Andrew's Party
in 2017, Andrew Piersenne, the Founder and Musical Director of Gissing Singers for nearly 10 years, laid down the baton for our weekly sessions and became our President. Gissing Singers was not the first choir Andrew had formed and led by any means. He had a long and distinguished choral career for many years before Gissing. We were very pleased to welcome many of his friends from his former choirs as well as Gissing Singers past and present and Gissing Villagers. Here are some photos as a reminder of that wonderful evening:
