Concert Choir, Tuesday 02/28/17

Rehearsal Notes and Assignments: Today we were in chorus for about 5 hours and it was super fun.. there were only about 35 people there total which is not a great number out of 67 so if you skipped today.. you missed out. We did tons of work and improved our songs a lot! First we ran through Sing Me to Heaven and worked on dynamics and making sure everything sounds well blended and cohesive. We also talked about the true meaning of the piece and some people shared what the song means to them and how they are able to relate through personal experiences. Then we worked on I'm Gonna Sing. We made a lot of small tweaks that made the song sound SO much better! Sopranos, Altos, Tenors (not the small group) and Basses need to emphasize the "Oh!" And "sus" on "oh my Jesus" the basses also worked on making sure they aren't a sliding into "grace". Mr. Biasi and the band students came in and we performed for them, then we watched the 25th Anniversary of Phantom of the Opera! :)

Concert Choir, Monday 02/27/17

Rehearsal Notes and Assignments: Today we worked on I'm Gonna Sing specifically not rushing on the "moving" part and making. Sure our vowels match. Everyone who is not in the small tenor group needs to make sure the "oh my Jesus" is surprised sounding but quiet. We also worked on the end of the peice correcting notes and timing. Then we went to our mixed choir spots and sang Sing Me To Heaven and we got in a large circle around the room to make sure we could hear eachother. Keep tall vowels and remember to maintain full focus throughout rehearsal. Also make sure you are here this whole week so we can prepare for MPA!! Juniors, good luck on the ACT tomorrow :)

Then we worked on I'm Gonna Sing and we made sure our 'oh my jesus' wasn't louder than the tenor small group.. we also worked some notes at the end (basses especially... remember not to chew the 'grrrrrrrace') Great rehearsal today everyone :)

After sight Singing, we went through Sing Me to Heaven and discussed things like matching vowels, blending, notes (basses), and matching the 's' sound.

Then we went over I'm Gonna Sing where the basses ran through their 'it was grace' part and the rest of us worked on the 'oh my jesus'. Remember to sound super surprised on the 'oh'. Some altos were added to tenor and we will reveiwbeverything again tomorrow!

We ran through sing me to heaven and talked about several things such as tall vowels, matching our 's' and following Mrs. Patchett. ALWAYS FOLLOW THE CONDUCTOR!!! It is very important that we stay together. Then we worked on I'm Gonna Sing and we polished our 'oh my Jesus' thebasses worked on their timing and pitches on the 'it was grace' part. The rest of us need to make sure our 'oh yeah's' are piano but sung with a sense of urgency and excitement.

Concert Choir, Friday 02/17/17

Rehearsal Notes and Assignments: Today Mrs. Siedshlag came from Middle Creek to help us with our MPA music! We did new warm ups like ascending and descending major 3rds on solfege and we also did things that we were familiar with like sirens and breathing exercises. After we warmed up, we worked on Sing Me to Heaven through the end. Some things we worked on were tall vowels, emphasizing consonants, and connecting the phrasing. Mrs. Siedshlag also sat down and talked to us about how important it is to really understand what we're Singing (phrases like grief and comfort & love and passion) if we are passionate about the song and sing with emotion it will improve our dynamics and overall song quality! Then we ran through I'm Gonna Sing once and did something a little different.. we got in a giant circle around the risers and mixed up the voice parts. This really allowed us to see how much our parts contrast with eachother in some places and how they are similar in other places! Great Rehearsal today :)

Rehearsal Notes and Assignments: Today we made up Singing quizzes, so if you were absent the day we did them or yours didn't go through, you should've made it up today. We did Sight Singing from a new book that was used during MPA in 2013. After that we listened to our recordings from Friday and circled things in our music that we heard on the recording (mostly consisted of breathing in the right place, blending, and notes). We then worked on Sing Me to Heaven pages 1 and 2. Ladies: make sure to blend during the first part of the song where we get the "solo" also make sure to keep tall vowels and sing through the 'v' of "vain and vacant". Men: Make sure you know your Notes and work on phrasing. The "aching silence" part should sound aching. Also make sure to keep tall vowels and blend voice parts!! :)
