Monthly Singing of the Lowcountry Sacred Harp

The Wingard Room, Circular Congregational Church, 150 Meeting St, Charleston

Saturday 18 November 2017 from 2 to 4 PM

ATTENDANCE. Stephen (Pres.), Rob (Sec.), Suzanne, Darleen, Delynne, Joanne

Pre-singing Business Meeting

The venue for our annual all-day singing remains unresolved. Stephen reported significant resistance at the Cathedral of St. Luke and St. Paul. Other ideas?
Rob will renew our application at First (Scots) Presbyterian.
Suzanne will look into the availability at John Wesley United Methodist.
Rob presented ideas about a singing at the Cypress Methodist Campground (1794) near Ridgeville.

NOTE: Numbers preceded by S are selections from The Shenandoah Harmony (2012). All others are from The Sacred Harp (Denson Edition, 1991).

Class was called to order by Stephen leading 24t. (Whew, made it!)
