A song for your Valentine
On Valentine’s Day, Cupid may be in charge of the love department but a local singing group can make the special day more musical and memorable.
For the seventh year, the BeezNeez Quartet will be out and about in Prince George sweetly serenading unsuspecting loved ones with a beautiful song of love.
“It has been so enjoyable for the quartet to bring this special message to people,” said quartet member Marilyn Johnson. “The reactions are as diverse as the people we sing go. We have those who laugh, smile, cry, hide and turn many shades of red from embarrassment. It is a great ride. We have sung in offices, the hospital, homes, mills, garages, schools and even a meat locker.”
The group, which sings in the time-honoured barbershop style, has been hired by people from all walks of life to bring their music and melodies to friends, coworkers, spouses, family members and other loved ones.
“We have serenaded husbands, wives, sweethearts, grandparents, children, friends...people can book for anyone they know. They can choose from four different songs for us to bring to their loved ones. We have one song that is definitely for sweethearts or spouses, one for families, one for friends, and one geared more for children.”
The event is a fundraiser for the quartet, who travel to out of town singing competitions in other cities. The BeezNeez Quartet is comprised of talented members from the White Spruce City Chorus, a chapter of the Sweet Adelines.
Your chosen Valentine will receive a beautiful song, a flower and small packet of chocolates, says Johnson. Cost of the Valentine-o-gram is $25. Phone 250-564-9130 to book a singing Valentine or for more information.
