Agenda for 9/24

This was a great rehearsal! I'm so happy to have so many new members among us.

Yesterday, we worked on the following movements:
  • 1
  • 5
  • 7
  • 8
  • 9
  • 11

Next week, we'll continue reading through the Gloria. Hopefully, I'll have some non-Gloria music ready to read.

There are a number of soprano and alto solos in the Gloria, including a duet for soprano and alto. The specific solos are listed in the music you received last night and are also posted in the right column of this blog. In the coming weeks, I'll let you know about soloist auditions--but it's not too early to start planning for this!
