MUSIC FOR COMING REHEARSALS
 
Thursday 11th Feb              CHOIR 1
No1, pp1-23       Our second session on this monumental chorus.
No 5, p26             ‘Not upon the Feast’ – short, very bright and strong double chorus which really gives a taste of the exciting choruses to come. We worked this a little last year.
No 15, p42           At the end of  the recit between Jesus and the Evangelist, Choir 1 sings this amazing brief response from the disciples – needs to be confident, so look at where you are getting your starting notes.
No 67, p192        Extremely dramatic double chorus finishing with ‘I am the son of God’. One of the most breathlessly dramatic choruses in SMP – needs everyone to know it very well.
 
Sunday 14th Feb                CHOIR 2
No 1                       Finish off today’s good work on this chorus – never underestimate this chorus for Choir 2. Sing this through as often as possible, and learn the Choir 1 lead-ins.
No 33, p 79          We only touched on this today, so a thorough rehearsal on this chorus.
No 36, p 114       Revise the work from last week and polish this beautiful mezzo aria with chorus.
No 42, p 131       ‘He guilty is of death’ – fantastic 8 part chorus – requires confidence in counting and pitching each entry.
