Presenting The illustrious, Incredible Hamilton Concert Getty Choir!

Fullness of Grace (first three pages) forward facing.

Fullness of Grace (first three pages) ... backwards facing :)
More distinction between our vowel sounds?  Practise w/o using music i.e. by rote and by ear.  It's actually easier to sing that way.

Wexford Carol & Magnificat with Ashley on solo voice... well done everyone!
(Only the first video on this playlist applies)

How Suddenly a Baby Cries with the soundtrack.  We sing till 1:06 - then pickup verse 4 again at 2:06 then after many bars, we break out again at 2:55
"Drop Your Jaw for Awe"  please

Joy Has Dawned - Angels We Have Heard
Children's Chorus sings first verse only and not again till the Gloria's  (with a descant on the final Gloria)   Verse 2, 3 and 4 is Adults only.

Hark, the Herald Angels Sing
This will sound even grander when I give a better lead into places like bar 69 and bar 93.
Thanks for putting up with me.  

Onward Gettyites!

May our Thanksgiving celebrations remind us 

How Great is our God

Always & Forever Faithful

Wexford Carol and Magnificat

Tail end of Joy Has Dawned ... the Gloria part
...rather self-explanatory, I know :)

Carol of the Bells
...such fun for a first crack at this.   Well done peeps.
(singing this from memory would be AMAZING)
- just sayin'

Rehearsal Notes

• pay attention to words - we are delivering a message! 
• hold binders high enough to keep the director in view
• memorize Hark the Herald and Joy to the World
• Personal home study is essential to our progress & polish

Hark the Herald:

• bar 76-77: turn the page and be ready to be loud (ff) at bar 77

Carol of the Bells:

• enunciate
• watch tempo or be a runaway train

Fullness of Grace:

• bars 13-14-15: ooh to oh to ah
• altos: bar 7 - syncopation
