It’s here on a Monday evening that Liz Martin weaves her own special kind of magic, making you feel welcome, putting you at your ease and astonishingly in my case, giving the confidence that you can sing and that you belong.
I loved the songs we sang, my absolute favourite being Moon River. And it still makes me smile and tingle when I think of those beautiful harmonies. And we marked the seasons as we went through each year.
We sang our way around the world, often in different languages. And we came together to commemorate the events in our lives – the good times, the birthdays and anniversaries with great joy, the difficult and painful times by standing together and singing in heartfelt unity.
I do miss places and the freedom to go where I want, walking or cycling through the countryside. I even miss shopping and choosing my own fruit and veg, but it’s people I miss most of all.
So thank you, dear choir, for being such a joyful and memorable part of my life.
And thank you, dear listener, for listening to this message. Take care. Helen.
