This is an opportunity to perform music or sing in an informal and supportive setting. We'll form a ring (if the room format and numbers allow) and go round with those who wish to do so performing a song or piece of music - whether that's a song from the movies, your own setting or composition, a filk (parody) song or another piece of music. There will also be some songs for everyone who wishes to join in and sing / play along. (If you want to look at these singalongs in advance, there are words/chords attached on Sched plus mp3 demos for a couple where the tunes may be unfamiliar). The session will be hybrid and online performances will also be welcome. Performances should be short however (song length) so we can get round as many as possible. If there is spare time we can try and go round again for additional contributions. There's no minimum (or maximum) musical standard, all performances will be positively received, and if you want to come along and just listen, that is fine too. If you're travelling and can't bring your instrument we may be able to lend you one on the day.
Pete has been involved in filking (parody singing) for three decades and was a founder member of the Oxford Tolkien Society filk band, the Taruithorn Singers. He does occasionally write and sing non parody songs!
