THIRD ANNUAL CENTRAL ONTARIO ALL-DAY SACRED HARP SINGING



Saturday, July 8 was the Third Annual Central Ontario Singing is London, Ontario. It was exhilarating. Photos by Thomas Evers are here, and from Martha Beverly are here and from Jan May are here.

The all-day sing was held at Christ Anglican Church Hall on Wellington Street, where one of London's Shape-Note groups hold monthly singings.

June 21 Singing


20 people sang:

63 Coronation
328 Praise God
344 Rainbow (in honour of Pride Week)
141 Complainer
114 Saints Delight
178 Africa
99 Gospel Trumpet
276 Bridgewater
95b Vernon
268 David's Lamentation
335 Return Again
86 Poland
217 Ballstown
48t Devotion
528 Showers of Blessing
84 Amsterdam
66 Jordan
386b Can I Leave You
282 I'm Going Home
504 Wood Street
49b Mear
215 New Topia
163b China
72b Belleville
3347 Christian's Farewell

And should you be inclined to sing in honour of the World Cup, may we suggest the following:


121 Florence
36 America
45 New Britain
86 Poland
107 Babylon is Fallen (for Iran)
32 Corinth (well, really in honour of the 2004 European Cup)

178 Africa
223 Portuguese Hymn
437 Sidney (for Australia, even though it's not spelled right)

Italy is the home of the seven-note (doremi) system. Otherwise, I'm sure they would hold a more prominent position in the Fasola tradition.

...And in the hopes they might make it next time:
107 Russia
401 Cuba

Enjoy!
