F110 Spring 2024 Singing for Fun

F110  Singing for Fun
Thursdays, 2:15–3:40, Mar. 28—May 16
Eight sessions
Instructors: Gayle Parsons, Linda Harber, Linda Gordon, Sophia Elberti
As the name says, we gather to have a good time singing songs popular from the ‘30s to today. Class members are encouraged to bring in songs they would like to sing. The only singing talent necessary is the desire to sing. We have an enthusiastic keyboard accompanist, a percussionist, and occasional banjo. It’s a lot of fun.
Gayle Parsons is retired from a career in tax law. She has been playing keyboard for Singing for Fun classes for about ten years—and is thrilled that Singing for Fun is back!!
Linda Harber has been an OLLI member since 2018 when she retired as Mason’s VP of Human Resources and Payroll. She is on the OLLI Arts and Music work group, is the current president of Friends of Music at Mason, and a singer from her school years. It is a joy to sing again with OLLI’s Singing for Fun.
Linda Gordon is retired from a federal career in refugee and immigration statistics and policy. She has sung with Singing for Fun for more than 10 years and is happy to be singing again.
Sophia Elberti retired from federal service in 2021 with a background in strategic communications. She joined OLLI shortly thereafter and became a member of Singing for Fun, which she has thoroughly enjoyed.
