Lexington practice note updates March 10, 2022

Practice Notes for Cantare and Concert Choir for Lexington trip:

Two Native American Songs (All) – Please be sure to review what sections of the piece you sing and which voice part.  Be sure you have secured your own part and have the music memorized.

Tolepe Menenak (All) – Be sure to completely memorize.  Study where NOT to breath.  Study and secure exact notation, especially on the verses.

Algonquin Prayer (Cantare only) – MEMORIZE!!  Secure the last three pages of the piece, especially moving to the final page.

A Song of Creation (All) – Have text fully memorized

Birdsong (Pro Arte) – Study dynamics.  Review parts.

Call It God (All) – Concert Choir joins on refrain – single photocopied sheet.  Cantare, please study parts on verses, especially pp. 3-6.  Everyone should have the refrain memorized so we do not need to turn back and forth in the score.

The Peace of Wild Things (Pro Arte) – Keep studying your part.  Pp. 5 & 6 are the weakest.

***Priority*** This Land is Your Land (All) – This is newer to everyone.  Be sure to review parts on solfege and text.  Bottom space ‘f’ is ‘Do’.

 

PRACTICING IS FUN!  ENJOY!
