I am just about to pull together a group of about 25 people aged 7 - 70 and with varying experiences and skills in singing. They don&amp;#39;t do much harmony and they are usually taught in a different way than NVN. I was thinking about writing a blog about this myself. I am going to be directing my first panto and this is going to be the chorus. I feel more confident about other aspects to be honest. Dare I make some changes to the way we do things just because I find it easier to learn songs the NVN way?</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/38408020/7999568680554049290/comments/default/1032945137692437873'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/38408020/7999568680554049290/comments/default/1032945137692437873'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.chrisrowbury.com/2009/08/writing-what-you-want-to-read.html?showComment=1251028958382#c1032945137692437873' title=''/><author><name>Wendy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13521725242500342789</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://blog.chrisrowbury.com/2009/08/writing-what-you-want-to-read.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38408020.post-7999568680554049290' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/38408020/posts/default/7999568680554049290' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
