I was not one of the ‘originals’, but as soon as I heard there was a chorus forming I signed up. At the time I joined we were doing parades, singing as we marched, which was challenging for some of us. We had no accompaniment except for Julie’s pitch pipe to give us our starting note and hadn’t really decided on the name Mountain Melody yet. I remember some hilarious sessions in which names were brainstormed. I particularly liked The Perfect Pitches, but we discarded that one because we didn’t have perfect pitch and one could so easily change the last p to b. I’ve really enjoyed the companionship and musical stretching I’ve had in my years with Mountain Melody.
