Down to the River to Pray

Im so excited to start working on the harmonies with you on this as this is wehn it really comes to life

Ben E King - Stand By Me

jroberts327 — 2024-01-15 08:44:38 UTC

a VERY clunky rendition of stand by me with the continued bassline and melody over the top, use as a bit of a guide but we are not sticking to it 100% - we wont be doing the key change at the end, because, why would you?!

Music Hunt... scrounging

jroberts327 — 2024-02-19 11:54:57 UTC

Hi All!

I'm on the scrounge! if anyone has any digital or paper copies of music they have used in the past, choir music or songbooks that they are willing to share with me I would be forever grateful. I've got multiple music and singing projects running, and a very low budget for the purchasing of music...
