IT WAS A TANGIBLE FARE WELL FOR THE LATE MOM (THE LATE Mrs. KIWOTOKA MUSOKE)
It was the sweet melodious voices of the APT's that accomplished some sense of company to the bereaved family of the late Mrs. KIWOTOKA MUSOKE as they remembered her great parentage of a great family that organized the Memorial Service.
Father John Kalungi who conducted the Mass in Luganda, humorously apologized to the congregation in advance, in case of a mistake and requested to be prompted if he ever got stuck.
The melodious voices of the APT's with a refined touch in the traditionally known hymns, may have fitted the pieces of puzzle, since in his word of thanks, he thanked the APT choir and prayed that the sweet voices combine with those of the Angles in conveying our prayers for the deceased.
The APTs cutely clad in white tops and Black bottoms, proved the saying that "Practice makes Perfection" as they accommodated a sudden change in Mr. Nasser Kagiri's voice owing to a sudden attack of a cold. Nasser effectively transformed to the Bass Clef leaving Mr. Richard Namisi and Mr. John Nsamba, and our keen supporter Mr. Abraham Muhozi handle tenor. Ms. Hedwig Tushabe handled Soprano alone while Ms. Lillian Lateru and Lynn Naome were on the Alto podium. Kiwanuka Lawrence and Sekanyo M. Lutalo handled the Baritones.
The above crew backed with the newly acquired equipment , thanks to the Director and Organist Br. Pius added the flavor to the occasion that soothed the congregation, as the sweet voices rocked the silence surrounding St. Merici Church. May the almighty God accept the prayers.
This was a great evaluation achievement as people who were in the congregation passed on their genuine appreciation and showed great enthusiasm to join the Troupe.
In a private conversation after the show, Kiwanuka Lawrence was quoted to have extended the dissemination of the Ideologies of APT by proudly speaking of the fact that APT has a cross sectional representation of Uganda, for having members almost from all the ethnical groupings of Uganda, "Bravo !".
The most overwhelming factor was the demystification of the almost "ethnic"spiritual differences in beliefs. The crew that performed had Catholics, Protestants and Muslims, "amazing !"
The Director of the group wishes to convey his most sincere thanks to all the Members who made it for their dedication and urged those who could not to squeeze some time for upcoming event.
A special vote of Congratulations and thanks is further extended to our new members, Ms. Lynn Naome and Mr. John Nsamba on their first performance, "This is only a pass out", there is more yet to come.
Lessons learnt:
1. Numbers are improtant but insignificant once you do not pay mind to get things done.
2. It is important that one pays attention even to other tasks(understudy) as long as it is the Troupes work. Special NOTE for Mr. Nasser K (Seps) on having switched to singing Bass and he did it so well.
3. "What Man has done Man can do" Lynn and John, played key roles with only TWO rehearsals.
