[Choir] Big Goal this week: Alleluia

[Bethany Reeves]

Dear All,


Our Big Goal for the week: get the Thompson "Alleluia" to the point where we can focus much more on higher-level musical work by next week. That means the basic notes & rhythms need to be under our belts.


Please take time to listen to your part, and the piece, via the previously provided links. I'll include them here again for your convenience.

The complete piece, as performed by Voices of Ascension:

We will also be spending time on the end (Reh. K forward) of the "Amen" chorus from MESSIAH in tomorrow's sectionals. Any advance listening would speed our work!  Look for "Final Amen" in Part III:

FYI - I will most likely be making some cuts in the "Blessing & Honor" section, immediately preceding the "Amen."


Best,
