1) The Joy of Singing

This course has been one of the most wonderful experiences at QSY. The group is made up primarily of people who were nervous to sing in the beginning, and now are belting it out every week. We are also learning technique and theory and developing a deeper understanding of music in general. Every week we are receiving feedback from students like this: “I go home on Thursday night after our class and my whole spirit feels buoyant!”

The next round of The Joy of Singing starts Thursday March 10th, at a new time! 7:30pm. The cost is $125 if paid before March 3rd, or $150 after. The class filled very quickly last time, so please register soon. To read more about Jane, our wonderful instructor, please visit http://www.all-together-now.ca/facilitators.html

We are also offering a continuation course of the first one called the Joy of Singing Harmony. It will be at 5:45pm. There may be a few spots open after we give first chance to the current students. If you have some singing experience and would like to know if there is room in this course, please let me know.
