Every time they have sung has been different -- different songs, different atmospheres, different people, different reactions, and different memories. It’s all part of a great experience they don’t want to forget.
The Chantettes - Bev, Patti, Billie, Lew, and Mall - first started singing as students at the Guelph Collegiate, in October, 1962. In the following year and a half, they made over 70 personal appearances, at banquets, churches, summer camps, hospitals, and coffeehouses, as well as on television, and on CBC radio. In the fall of ’64, the group had to split up temporarily, as the girls went off to universities, nurses’ training and business college.
From every song in its repertoire, a folk group must take its own interpretation. The group must present the number to the audience in such a way that both the feeling of the song and the group personality are revealed. However, the group must be versatile. It must not restrict itself to one type of song within a specialized area, to one type of harmony, or to a set instrumental pattern. A good folk group is versatile, yet it is consistent in its depth of interpretation. This is the philosophy behind the Chantettes’ singing. Their well-blended harmony is the result of many hours of practice, and a keen attention to the meaning and composition of each song.
The Chantettes like to remember: their first engagement at the G.C.V.I. Christmas assembly, singing for the Canadian Schoolboy Curlers at their Championship banquets, eating innumerable boxes of chocolates, travelling to engagements crammed into a Morris Mini Minor, their practices, and many excursions to the Pizza Palace and the Chinese laundry.
But, most of all, the Chantettes remember the great experience of singing together, the wonderful people they’ve met, and the unequalled thrill of performing before an audience knowing that they alone have something to give.
Yes, THE CHANTETTES REMEMBER...
