Worthing Local Group “At Home” Session – Wednesday 3rd March 2021

7.30pm start if attending the Zoom meeting

Hello everyone. Following on from last month’s ‘At Home’ Session we have decided to give it another go. We are getting closer to being able to meet up hopefully, but in the meantime we will need to be a bit longer with the ZOOM or AT HOME Worthing sessions.

If you are unable to join by Zoom, or you feel it is not for you, then please join us in spirit by singing the same songs.

The song list below is adaptable to a Zoom or a no-Zoom session. Either way, all singers welcome – and welcome to our March Zoom. It is not designed to take over from Tina’s wonderful sessions, but is there to supplement our Worthing sessions which are currently based around singing alone in our own homes (but at the same time). It would be really good it we were to do some interaction with each other which will lead into small, local, socially-distanced groups when the current climate eventually changes, for those who may wish to.

Though I’m not musically gifted like a lot of our members, I am content to put my IT skills to the use of the group to get these sessions moving. Therefore I have set up an initial Zoom Session for Wednesday 3rd March at 7.30pm. Currently Zoom sessions are free as long as I keep them below 40 minutes in duration; however we can have two sessions back to back. Therefore I would suggest if we are able to get this one running, that we have 35-minute session, followed by a coffee/beer break of 5 minutes, followed by another half-hour session. All is subject to change. To log into the session use the following details below.
