No report from January 27 because we didn’t meet. A couple of people claimed they wanted to, but then thanked me profusely for cancelling. The declared snow emergency did end a couple of hours before our meeting, but we weren’t yet dug out enough for normal tranportation, and it was too cold to deal with heroic transportation.

On February 3, we played:

• From Il Primo Libro a due voci:
  • Lupacchino: 1, 2, 3, 4
  • Tasso: 7
• Ruffo: La, Sol, Fa, Re, Mi; Trinitas in unitate; Dormendo un giorno
• Byrd, The Nightingale

We are pretty well back to normal on digging out from the last two snowstorms. The next one is supposed to happen tomorrow, simultaneously with our meeting. It’s only supposed to be an inch or two, so it’s unlikely there will be official interference with the parking, but of course you should use your own judgement about safety and convenience.

We played:

• Amy souffrez que je vous aime
• Entre vous qui aymés
• Dowland: Go, crystall teares; Unquiet thoughts; All ye whom love or fortune hath betraid
• Entre vous qui aymés

Our normal rule is that if there’s a declared snow emergency in Cambridge, we don’t meet. Of course, people need to make their own decision about the safety of their own trip.

lt looks likely the the current declared emergency will end some time tomorrow, or at worst early Tuesday. If there’s enough uncleared snow on the side streets to make parking (more) difficult, I will email the people who said they want to come with the information.

Our annual holiday party will be on January 1, 2026, starting at 4 pm, at 233 Broadway, Cambridge.

Tell everybody you know to bring everybody they know. Let me know if you’re planning to come, and if you’re bringing a contribution of food or drink. People who might be interested in coming on Tuesdays are especially welcome. Note that while we’re a little better off for bass singers than we’ve been in the past, we are still in need of sopranos.

There’s a printable Invitation. If you print it double sided, the flyer for our group is on the back. If it looks familiar, I got lazy and only modified the date from last year.
