December 1 Rehearsal Notes

12/1/14 Rehearsal Notes

Sorry I'm three days late on this!

We got great feedback about Benedictus; several people said we blended so well that they only heard one voice.

Recap of the schedule: 12/7 Susan Clay and Scott for Lo How a Rose, 12/14 Susan Clay and Sherri for Hosanna, and 12/21 all for First Noel/Pachebel.

Practice notes:

• The Susans will make the same vowel sound on the intro to First Noel/Pachebel.
• Susan Clay will start louder and do a progressive decrescendo as Susan Chandler joins in and they reach the lyrics.
• Paula will only switch to the second piano accompaniment for the bottom of page 6.
• We discussed the possibility of doing Three Dog Night's Joy to the World in January (1/18?).
• We discussed the possibility of doing We Are the Earth for Earth Day.
• Susan Chandler as soprano, Susan Clay as alto, Elaine as tenor, Scott and Sherri not currently participating but willing to be called in if needed.
