"Mark the Music"

Hello Tour Buddies!

I have just returned from the fabulous South Hadley where I saw quite a few of you singing at Cathy's last concert and attending the celebration dinner in good old Buckland. It was very fun to see you all and we missed those who weren't there! I just couldn't resist blogging, so here are some photos...

The weather was perfect... here's a photo of Safford and Porter from in front of Abbey Chapel that I took on Friday afternoon.


Next is a photo from Friday evening's rehearsal in the Chapel. We were sitting in the audience pews by voice part and Cathy was conducting from the stage extension.


More from Friday's rehearsal - but this time we're on the risers, all 200 of us, undergraduates and alumnae.




Last but not least, a shot from after Saturday's dinner... someone found her "Long Bright" in her closet and brought it along to model it for us! Whoa polyester -- the color is truly amazing. She is surrounded by women who also wore that costume. (And check out the crazy wallpaper in the Buckland dining hall -- it's good to see that some things never change.)


Enjoy!
