Choir News and Updates from ~The Phoenix ~

Without Repetition, Hesitation, or Deviation...

29/1/2020

Without any more time for repetition, hesitation, or deviation, we have to let you know that our January 2020 Open Rehearsals end tomorrow evening!

So, if you have a hankering to come and look at what we do, how we do it and help us continue our first look at the songs in our April Spring Concerts that not even our established choir members have seen before, THURSDAY 30th at 7.30pm is your last chance!!!

That is not to say we will ignore you if you want to talk to us later...   ...we're too friendly a bunch to do that!!!   But we know that if your visit results in you wanting to join our chorister ranks, it's easier for you if you join us earlier in the season, rather than later!!!

After all, from February, it's heads down behind closed doors as we rehearse our song programme ready for the first concerts of our 10th Anniversary Year in April!

Nicholas Parsons CBE
It's been a while (in fact, 1983) since our Fine City has been the location of John Benson announcing: "From Norwich, it's the Quiz of the Week!" and 20 million television viewers settled down on a Saturday evening to watch Anglia Television's ITV networked quiz, 'The Sale of the Century'.   Nicholas Parsons seemingly effortlessly conducted the show's proceedings over the entire 12 years it was broadcast.

He had already been seemingly effortlessly conducting proceedings since 1967, and was doing so until Autumn last year, as the host of Radio 4's excellent bit of fun 'Just A Minute!', where panellists are challenged to speak on a surprise topic for 60 seconds without repetition, hesitation, or deviation from the given subject.

It is no exaggeration to repeat that he is being described as one of the greatest entertainers and broadcasters of our time, and that the longevity of his acting and broadcasting career was second to none.  His many obituaries (e.g. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-11808907) and the sources of information available about his career and achievements are fully worth reading, so we, without hesitation or deviation, recommend them to you.

Take the time to thank people for what they’ve done for you, whether they’ve done something big or small. This shows that you’re paying attention.

Make a habit of cultivating gratitude. If something good happens to you, make a note of how grateful you are for it; if you’re on the lookout for things you should be grateful for, you’ll find that you have much more to be happy about than you thought.

    (t)Witterings from the Choir's Webmaster, The Phoenix, but it's normally about what we are going to be or have been up to, something nice about someone we have sung with, or a gracious reply to one of your own wonderful comments.
