Chamber Choir - 3/25/14
Today Dr. Evans had us get into mixed formation in a big circle around the room. This was really great for the group in multiple ways; for one, it gets us listening to each other and blending really well, and for another it got people to SHUT UP for the most part. I don't know if that was Dr. Evan's motive in mixing us, but it worked. There was much less talking today. He also said at the beginning of class, "Let's have no sound come out of our mouths that isn't beautiful, rich music. That means less chit chat." So I appreciated that he said something. We did some really great work. We worked on phrasing and dynamics in our Chilcott hymn, and then we added percussion to the medieval sounding requiem. We also spent a lot of time working on the most beautiful latin peice! Oh man I need to learn the titles of these pieces. It was a really productive rehearsal either way.
