For some it was their first time participating; for others it鈥檚 a long-standing holiday tradition. Regardless, it鈥檚 safe to say that everyone at the Annual 黄色直播 Carol Sing on Thursday afternoon left feeling a little more festive.
Led by President Florizone and Choral Director Mary Martell, the musical event filled the Sculpture Court of the Dal Arts Centre to near capacity with staff and faculty, friends, family members and one baby grand piano.
In between song selections 鈥� which included holiday classics ranging from 鈥淒eck the Halls鈥� to 鈥淭he First Noel鈥� 鈥� Dr. Florizone and Prof. Martell were prepared with seasonal zingers. For example: 鈥淲hat鈥檚 the difference between the Christmas alphabet and the ordinary alphabet? The Christmas alphabet has no 鈥楲.'鈥� (Admittedly, a bit of a groaner 鈥� delivered with tongue planted firmly in cheek.)
The highlight, aside from six delicious pots of chowder and sweets provided by 黄色直播鈥檚 Food Services team, was a rousing version of 鈥淛ingle Bells鈥� with attendees fetching their keys to provide the song with the requisite 鈥渏ingle.鈥�
Photographer Nick Pearce was on-site to capture the festivities. Thanks to everyone who helped organize or take part in today鈥檚 sing-along. Whether you鈥檙e a baritone or a bass, have perfect pitch or tend towards tone deaf, we wish you a very happy holiday!
