From Dr. Whitmire: Dear Singers-
I hope that you are enjoying the final days of a great summer.
I will be on campus this Thursday from 1-4 pm. I will have rehearsal CDs of
Brahms: Neue Liebeslieder Waltzer (including German pronunciation, and a great recording) -$5
Haydn: Mass in Time of War (including a great recording)-$5
I will also have sheet music for Neue Liebeslieder Waltzer (including translations) -$5
Sheet music for Haydn: Mass in Time of War is in the campus bookstore.
If you want to learn your music online instead go to
Neue Liebeslieder Waltzer

Mass in Time of War

If you want to print Neue Liebeslieder Waltzer for yourself, go to
Sheet music (.pdf)
Neue Liebeslieder Waltzer has 7 choruses and 8 solo movements. I plan to use an auditioned group for the solo movements. This will give experienced singers a small group- or possibly solo opportunity, and make the task of learning the music and German more manageable for newer singers. Altos may audition for soprano solos and vice versa; tenors may audition for the bass solo and vice versa. All Music Majors must audition. 3-sop, 4-bass, 5-alto, 6-sop, 9-sop, 10-ten, 11-sop. 13-sop/alto
