Undaunted by all the zoomfoibles, The Bridge Singers attempted some challenging and ultimately rewarding events along with our weekly rehearsals. One of these was our Burns Night Singalong on 25^th January. We had previously voted for our favourite Burns songs from the repertoire of our two previous Burns Night Concerts, so I gathered together recordings of all of these and basically we sang along with them in our own homes and made each other smile and laugh. We were joined by our friends from Kirkcaldy, Richard and Morag Michael who had been here in person at our 2020 event, and once again Richard played us some wonderful improvisations from his zoomed-up piano studio. What an absolute honour to have this amazing musician do this for us. You can see highlights of the evening here: The Bridge Singers’ Burns Night Singalong 2021 – Cheryl Camm – Composer . If you don’t want to listen to the whole lot, then I recommend 7. It Was In Sweet Senegal, which was a recording Jamie and I put together that week with original soloist Connor taking the lead – in 2018 he sang it with piano accompaniment, and in 2020 with choir.

After this night, the choir sent in recordings of our favourite (as voted for in the poll), The Birks Of Aberfeldy, for me to make into a video as before, along with photos of “waterfalls and things that make us happy”. We shared this resulting video at the beginning of February. You can hear the video of The Birks Of Aberfeldy here!
