-Thankful: worked on key change @ m.47, bottom of 6. Started at m.40. Bass/Tenors @ m.56. Sopranos @ m.56 FLOAT IT softer so we can hear the Altos, Basses and Tenors (they have the cooler part). Top of page 8 - very quiet (pp) but very intense still.
-All The World is Winter: pg.5 (middle situation) repeats @ pg.8 NO BREATH btwn "remember ^ the warmth.." @ m.22
