Korinnya kicks the Fall Season off with a Bang!

This fall, Korinnya kicked off a new season by welcoming a number of new members and welcoming back returning members!  We hope everyone had a relaxing summer.

This season ahead of us is an exciting one and we look forward to making new friends, learning new songs, re-learning old songs (especially our favourite drinking songs - oy!), and doing what we love to do - SING!  Wait -- don't forget about "Treat Night" which is held on the last Monday of each month right after rehearsal!

We love to perform the songs we've learned, so mark you calendars with the following Korinnya performance dates:

  • Famine Memorial - Saturday, November 21, 2008
  • Knox Carol Festival - Monday, December 1, 2008
  • Ukrainian Carol Festival - Sunday, December 7, 2008
  • Soziriya Malanka - January 23, 2009

Also, stay tuned for another note-worthy Korinnya performance at Korinnya's 2009 Kubasa Competition!!

New members are always welcome.  If you know someone who is interested in joining Korinnya, please bring them to our next rehearsal!  We are always looking for a new singer or two to join our bass section (and that's the bottom line!)

See you on Monday!
