What was the first tune you ever sang? It’s likely you don’t remember, but there’s an even chance it was something like “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star”, so that’s where we start! But we don’t stay in one phase for long, so during childhood our songs become a little more sophisticated. Then we reach our teenage years and become mildly rebellious with a bit of Rock’n’Roll. Moving on to our twenties and perhaps the rock becomes a little heavier! But soon it’s all cut short by romance, marriage and maybe children, heralding your maturity. So your music will naturally become more sophisticated, maybe with shades of George Gershwin et al. When the children grow up, perhaps that’s the time to join a male voice choir! Time passes by so quickly, but don’t despair! Our final stages of song can be reached only through experience. All our influences come to bear, and we produce an ecclectic and enjoyable mixture of all the styles we have passed through! Can all of this appear in one song? It certainly can! - The White Rose
