Snow Homework for next rehearsal 1/24/12

 HOMEWORK for Rehearsal 1/24/12

We missed two rehearsals this week because of snow...not good.

HOMEWORK FOR NEXT REHEARSAL
Using the links below as a guide, by next rehearsal please have the notes, text and rhythm ready for "Cantate Domino" from the beginning to the bottom of page 3 just before the 3/4 bar. Be ready to sing your part in a double-quartet.

Here are the links to practice mp3s for "Cantate Domino"

There is one complete version with all the voices equal [FULL] and 2 versions for each voice part- [T1, T2, BI (a.k.a Baritone), BII] with your part being played louder than the others in the background. There is also a version without your voice part [noT1, noT2 etc.] so you can be confident when you sing in rehearsal on Tuesday. Finally, there is a pronunciation track [pron]. Get to work.
