West Point Alumni Glee Club
"No fun without music; no music without fun!"
Loose Cannons
West Point Alumni Glee Club singers who are interested in working on some barber shop related music such as "Lida Rose" are invited to let Mike Rankin know. mikerankin5762@aol.com
While typically sung as a quartet, the group is interested in having more than one person in each singing part for redundancy.
So far a small group have been rehearsing and will be rehearsing on into the year.

Rehearsals at Knights of Columbus are for one hour (more like 45-50 minutes) and are primarily for Nancy to smooth out the rough edges. Rehearsals at Russ’s house are learning rehearsals for up to two hours mostly to work on blend; however, if new music is introduced we will try to get it to you by email beforehand so you can rehearse your part prior to the other rehearsals.
MUSIC:
"Lida Rose"
Lida Rose on YouTube For reference only, we will sing it in a slightly different key!
"When I'm 64" (aka What most of us see in our rear view window!)
