Meeting Report

December 17, 2023 – Hurray! After a long pandemic we’re back. Our concert at the B’nai Brith House in Côte Saint-Luc  this afternoon was greatly enjoyed by both the residents and the performers alike. After a few introductory remarks,  the group played “You Are My Sunshine”. The audience was encouraged  to sing along and they sure did. Mrs. Zarnicky then played Laura Nyro’s “Sweet Blindness”.  Lorraine who arranged the concert, played “Sinnerman”. Great job Sunshine! Many songs were played during the duration of the concert and the  performers were all in good form. Some of the performances however, were outstanding. Ira gave an amazing and highly entertaining rendition of “The Rebbe Elimelech”. Mrs. Zarnicky had the audience trying to sing, “Gilly, Gilly Ossenfeffer Katzenellen Bogen By the Sea”. (Try getting your tongue around that one). The afternoon was filled with comedy, audience participation and pathos. Seasonal songs and songs reflecting difficult times were also played. Noriko however, stole the show. She provided everyone with shakers for her performance of “The Locomotion”. Click here to see a brief clip of one of her songs. She got audience members dancing. The concert consisted of solo performances, group ensembles and amusing and informative repartee. Much fun was had by all and we look forward to having many more live performances. Won’t you join us?
