Attendance, riser charts, email lists, oh my! Don't you wish you could just kiss spreadsheets goodbye? Now you can, with Chorus Connection.
Hear from our employee choir, "The ChoCo Puffs," in this parody of Joni Mitchell's "River," most recently inspired by Ben Platt's rendition featured in The Politician. #plattfans
"Platform" Lyrics
It’s concert season. Oh, read your emails, please.
We’re sending out practice tracks and a note from your trustees.
Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.
But I’ve got spreadsheets; they bring me to my knees.
I’ve gotta update four more lists and sort 'em S, A, T, and B.
Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.
Oh, I wish we had a platform so strong,
I could kiss spreadsheets goodbye!
Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.
These details make me cry!
The board they try to help me, their overworked E.D.
But they don’t have solutions; I need some kind of relief.
Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.
This roster’s hard to manage with a pencil and a pad.
Lost track of the best tenor that we ever had
Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.
I wish we had a platform so strong,
I could kiss spreadsheets goodbye!
Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.
These details make me cry!
It’s concert season. Oh, read your emails, please.
We’re sending out practice tracks and a note from your trustees.
Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.
