Soundhouse Choir salutes a legend
SOUNDHOUSE CHOIR AKA ‘BIG JEANETTE & AW THE SANDRAS’ sing for Janey
The Soundhouse Choir will gather on Friday (29 November) to honour and salute our Scottish Comedy Legend, Janey Godley.
In celebration of her life and work this will be part of her Final Farewell. A wee tour of her beloved festival home, Edinburgh.
The choir will meet outside St Giles Cathedral on the Royal Mile, at 2pm and as Janey’s hearse approaches St Giles from the Lawnmarket at 2:30pm, they will sing Amazing Grace.
After a short pause for reflection, they will raise their voices again with One Day Like This, by Elbow.
Following that, the choir will continue with a short set of songs in celebration of our brand-new Winter Festival, taking place in venues around Edinburgh 28 NOV - 2 DEC.
All are welcome to join in. Dress code - warm and colourful!
Lyrics and files for both songs for Janey appear below:
