Notes on Dress Rehearsal

Monday, November 22nd, 2010

From Dr. Whitmire:  Dear Singers-

Happy Saint Cecelia Day (Patron Saint of Musicians)!
Brava/o! I could not have been more pleased and proud of you at last night’s dress rehearsal. You were attentive, patient, and sang with a beautiful full tone in every section. Our soloists did a fabulous job. We had only a few rhythmic issues in the fast spots. We’ll sort them out tomorrow night. We’ll also sing through Verdi Dies Irae first section.

If you can, please plan to rehearse On with the snow with the band on Thursday night, December 2, 8-8:30 pm.

See you tomorrow night.

Reminders

Friday, November 19th, 2010

From Dr. Whitmire:  Dear Singers-

Reminders:
Tomorrow (Sat 11/20) – Rehearsal at NVCC; 1-2:15 pm
Sunday (11/21) –  Rehearsal at Bishop Ireton, 6-8:30 pm [I’ll need several able bodies to help Steve set up risers. If you can help, show up at 5:30 pm)

Tomorrow I will have more Verdi Alto CDs for those who didn’t get one.

I’ll also have more copies of “On with the snow.”
Don’t forget to make the correction: mm 35-37 words are “No man, but you can do the job when you’re in town ”
Unfortunately the midi file for this has gone awol so there won’t be any notes for you unless it shows up. It’s very simple and familiar.
