• Maybe we could do one piece as an a capella choir, and sing some traditional East African music? We would of course need to find some local help for this. EMwangi (WMF) told me that she might have a recommendation for us. --Gnom (talk) 07:14, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
  • some inspiration: Wana Baraka, Luo Folk Song, Mungu ibariki Afrika (en), Jambo Bwana (en), Malaika (en), Wimbo wa Jumuiya Afrika Mashariki (en)
• Really hoping to make it. I’m open to singing, which is probably a better place for my talents but will be practicing flute now on the regular. Bastique (talk) 08:10, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

I can join by singing, I am from the West Africa. I don't know if that counts. Tesleemah (talk) 00:37, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Absolutely! If we want to do a choir, we need as many singers as possible! Gnom (talk) 07:31, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

I don't suffer much of stage fright so I could reinforce a choir. I do have a good sense of rhythm though I've only have had a single singing lesson. I used to be able to play the clarinet but that was many years ago. 1Veertje (talk) 08:32, 13 October 2024 (UTC)

@Gnom, if there is a choir next year, I would like to partake. I had a major en:FOMO feels when I saw the group of singers on stage this year. I have been part of choirs for more than two decades (there were short breaks in between, but yeah). I am comfortable in the bass section. Robertsky (talk) 13:18, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

Yay, very cool! Once planning for Wikimania 2024 kicks off, we can talk to the programme team and then select a local choir director to help us choose a suitable piece. Gnom (talk) 14:51, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

• Céline Husetowski WMFr (violin) suggested French jazz, what about Minor Swing? --Gnom (talk) 06:54, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
• I am also a big fan of French impressionist music. --Gnom (talk) 06:54, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
• I’ll be there —Bastique (talk) 08:11, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
• I would be keen to join on the double bass - your performance in Katowice was really nice! Also, thumbs up for Minor Swing :) − Pintoch (talk) 09:59, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
