CV, Friday 11/03/17

Happy Friday :-)

Announcements:
-Mrs. Smith was our substitute today and we got lots of work done!
-Forms for our middle school field trip in December and the Wintour field trips went out yesterday  and they need to be signed ASAP
-We were also given a form about the concerts we are required to attend each semester in order to get our CV Honors credit. If you were absent, see Mrs. Patchett tomorrow.
-Our dress rehearsal will be November 30 after school and the winter concert is December 1. You are REQUIRED to be at both. If you have a conflict, email Mrs. Patchett.

Rehearsal Notes:
-Today we worked on the following songs....
1. Betelehemu- We worked through pages 3-7, specifically focusing on being able to put all parts together. We briefly went over pronounciation of the Nigerian words but they're said pretty much exactly how they look.
2. Glow- So this one was a little rough.. we decided it's probably the fact that it's in the Key of B, but we're getting there!! We looked at pages 2-5. Make sure you are counting because our entrances were a little rocky.
3. Nutcracker Jingles- We sang pages 3- the top of 10. Not much time was spent on this one because it's really easy so we picked it up pretty quick. Just a reminder, if any of the ladies ever get lost, just remember a lot of times the sopranos & altos are singing ether in 3rds of 5ths!
4. The First Nowell- sang through the whole thing and it was pretty good!!
5. Angles We Have Heard On High- learned notes for pages 3-5 keep strong consonants, this song will sound super cool if it's really clean!

Music Theory: 
-None

Homework: 
-Get your forms signed and turn in MONDAY if you have not done so
-Reveiw your music... we have a lot to learn
-Monday, Mrs. Smith will still be our substitute. She is going to help us learn our music and everyone needs to continue being super respectful and nice to her!! Be focused this month because we need to learn 10 songs before December 1st!!!
-Have a GREAT weekend everyone :-)
