Hello again,

I am passing along another opportunity for the vocalists among us. This is a neat project, and an excellent chance to allow your voice to be heard in a unique way.

Best,

> Hello, Federation Family:

> I am pleased to be partnering with the NFB Performing Arts Division to
> put together a virtual choir for National Convention. This is a way
> for us to unite and make music together during this time of social
> isolation. All are welcome and encouraged to participate, regardless
> of musical experience.
> 
> Here is how this will work. We will prepare three songs. Sheet music
> will be available in Braille and print, depending on preference, and
> part recordings will also be available for those who do not read
> music. Four rehearsals will be held virtually over Zoom on June 5,
> June 12, June 19, and June 26, all at 8:00 PM EST; rehearsals will be
> recorded for those with conflicts. Participants will record themselves
> singing their parts, submitting their recordings no later than June
> 30. Those recordings will then be edited together to make the virtual
> choir which will be featured some time during the convention.
> 
> Music will be as follows:
> This Is Me (from The Greatest Showman):

> Make Them Hear You (from Ragtime):
> https://youtu.be/_dWFoXHobvw
> Live The Life You Want:

> Your Voice Part (Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass)
> If you plan to record all three songs; if you don't, which songs you
> plan to record.
> 
> A little about yourself, including musical experience and in what
> format you would like to receive your sheetmusic.
> 
> Please feel free to write to me at Rachel.grider at gmail.com if you have
> any questions. I am so excited to make music with you!
