It’s well known that the old saying is true, “An army travels on it’s stomach”. I wonder if the same could be said of choruses? “A chorus travels on its quartets”. Who knows?
HAH has fielded three quartets in the Newcastle Nationals…Good Fortunes, After Supper Project and of course Joining Forces. Also our MD, Mike Ludwig is part of a quartet, Electric Canoe who will be attending Nationals. Whilst mainly Gold Coast domiciled we lay claim, in part to them.
 
To get back to my point about quartets. If you have them embedded in your chorus, you can’t but, help be better. We, as I have mentioned in earlier articles are undergoing a period of rebuilding after losing a number of our members. There is no doubt that having quartets bolstering the main chorus is the way to go to help lift any performance.
 
All of the quartets have qualified to go as a result of an outstanding Sunshine Regionals event and we are hoping that they perform equally as well on the national stage.
 
Winter has finally arrived and we are hoping that rain at last starts to fall in the drought ravaged areas of Queensland. Don’t forget. You can always catch up with HAH on Facebook, or via our web-site
