Would you like to join my merry band?

I am also very proud of my chicken impersonation which I can do to music. Maybe softly in the background? I can make it mournful, inquisitive, happy or whatever is required EP

I can blow across a blade of grass which makes a screeching sound or I can blow into my hands to make an owl hoot, and I can still whistle with two fingers in my mouth. Not assets required very much these days.

The owl hoot could be at the start of the recording, then a couple of unsung lines as just music, then the singing.

I have no idea about which key, I don't understand keys.

It might be something very simple but I just don't get it.

Even if I knew the theory of keys I could not then advise on the question you ask.

Alas, I don't play a musical instrument. I often sing around the house when doing housework as I like to sing but that is just home singing.

Something that I do wonder about, does anybody here know the answer, I saw once that German volksmusik sounds (different/better) than English music because the instruments are tuned to a different key not just for volksmusik I think, something about the tuning of instruments on the European mainland. Does that mean anything to anyone here please?

I can play the castanets, well I can if I can find the other one, I’ll have a hunt for it and let you know when I find it.
I also have some tappy shoes, so I can do that in time with the other instrumentalists ……

Wow, if it were not for this thread and your post I might never have seen those.

Okay with a mouth-organ.
Oh sorry! Wrong thread.

A piece of really almost magical effect is the changing of one word in what otherwise is a repeated chorus, as is in this song.

Can you spot it in this recording?

Some people recording that song, for whatever reason, sing the second chorus the same as the first chorus.

It would be nice to have a Wurlitzer. Just image the thrill of an organ rising up from the orchestra pit?

Sure you’re on the right thread ?!

I’ve tuned my triangle and am ready to go. Is there a dress code? I like the fancy ball gowns favoured by the Andre Rieu musicians.

How many singers does your ouvre require, EP?

Well, I suppose only one would be required as a performance by a single singer would work.

If there were two then maybe each do a part solo and some together, as in this video.

Or as a duet.

which incidentally has subtitles in English

Or mixed differently like this

So whoever is organising it all could divide it up as thought best depending how many people would like to sing.

One possibility is one or two main singers and others who like to sing to be backing singers or join in as a group for one part.

Yet I like inclusiveness, so any number from one to a googolplex would be fine.

My tinnitus can be quite tuneful ?, but only I would hear it?

I'll volunteer to be a dolly bird.

We need a few dolly birds with trays to sell ice creams and popcorn or is that just for films?

I can rattle the tambourine quite well and also dance a bit if required? Also don't mind selling tickets.

You could be in charge of Front of House Lucca as well, in that case.
You know, sorting out the seating, no unnecessary comments, policing the eating: no noisy crisps or popcorn. Suitable gravitas for the occasion...

Probably better doing that yes as I have no musical ability at all
