We are thrilled with the sound we are creating under the direction of Mary Daugherty. Have a listen as we sing Irish Blessing at a recent Family Night rehearsal.
May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face.
May the rain fall soft, upon your fields.
And until we meet again, may He hold you in his hands.
May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
Plans are big and with a new director we are learning new interpretations and for our newbies, they are having to learn the entire Christmas repertoire.
We have a full Christmas schedule with a guest appearance at the Military Officers Association of America at the Yacht Club on December 6th, an earlier in the month than usual show on December 8th at Gateway Church of Christ, our annual Tannenbaum Express to nursing and retirement centers on December 15th and a tour of Cordova Mall on December 18th.
In May of this year the Board of Directors of the Pensacola Bay Harmonizers met with and interviewed a young lady who had sent us her resume expressing a desire to direct the Pensacola Bay Harmonizers. A graduate of Pensacola Christian College and working on her Master’s in Choral Directing, Mary Daugherty seemed like a good fit. That decision has proved to be not only good, but GREAT one. Not being real familiar with Barbershop Harmony, the relationship between director and chorus soon became a wonderful and growing exchange of knowledge. As Mary learned more of our hobby, the chorus learned more about singing. Her ability to teach (she teaches elementary school children at Pensacola Christian Academy) in a confident, yet encouraging manner has endeared her to veteran Barbershopp
Merry Christmas from the Pensacola Bay Harmonizers!
