Clearly, my expectations were too meagre.
I repent.
I call your attention to some notes from a faithful chorister who jots down stuff we learn and reminds me of them. :)
Thank you Toni, for taking on that job again and doing it justice.
Homework!
Practice ‘Wexford Carol’ and ‘Magnificat’
Joy Has Dawned/Angels We Have Heard on High:
- Pg 5 – note repeat @ v. 3a (i.e. go back to bar 105 and sing v. 2)
- ‘Excelsis’ – pronounced ‘egg shells’
- ‘deo’ – note syncopated rhythm
- Sopranos: bar 105, ‘we have’ – note: syncopated
O Come All Ye Faithful:
- Bar 13: ‘angels’ – not traditional notes
- V. 3, bar 33: ‘highest’ – not traditional notes
The polls are up for you to decide whether we change the rehearsal date for Thanksgiving Monday to Wednesday, October 15 OR Thursday, October 16.
The other decision to be made by democratic vote is whether to keep rehearsal times at 7:30-9:30pm or change it up to 7:00pm - 9:00 pm
Cast thine vote.
I am part of the choir coming from Providence Reformed Collegiate to help sing in the choir. We would like it if you could have your practices at 7:00 to 9:00 because we have a 2 hour drive back home, and have school the next morning. Thank you for your consideration!
ReplyDeletePerhaps we could agree to meet from 7-9pm for those rehearsals where PRC will be present? At this point, we don't know how often that will be.
