(4/23/2009) We have only one Tuesday night rehearsal (April 28) and one Saturday rehearsal (May 2 at noon) before our concert on Thursday May 7. There is no rehearsal on Tuesday, May 5 (Applied Voice Recital). And no dress rehearsal that I know of.
It is important that we continue to work with our rehearsal CDs, keyboards, etc. to master those difficult places in the music. You know – those spots you’ve circled and added up or down arrows because your guess doesn’t match the singer on either side of you.
We can’t guess those notes. We have to KNOW them. We have to OWN them.
One more thing. Concert dress is still Concert Dress – and that includes black folders. Practice using them at our next rehearsal.
Update: There is also a rehearsal for men on Saturday, 4/25, 12 – 1:15, on the schedule. The rehearsal on Saturday, 5/2 is (SATB) and is 12 – 1:15.
