Dear WCS

Congratulations on another EXCELLENT rehearsal last Tuesday, you really have hit the ground running! Super singing, lots of detail already, I can tell that this is going to be a great concert. BUT there is lots of work to do, and some of this music is really hard, so do please check in with the music at home between rehearsals, and if you could catch up on rehearsals you miss that would be super.

So far this term we have covered:

Lauridsen - Sure on this Shining Night
Tavener - Funeral Ikos (page 5 to 7 in detail)
Goodall - movements 1, 2 (to bar 27), and 4

Next week we will push on with Goodall movement 2, and look at movements 5 and 6. In the latter, there will be some re-scoring with altos singing tenor 1 and sopranos singing alto, so please bring your pencils!

Please refer to my previous message for links to recordings.

Thank you for your hard work, yours in excitement,

Huw
