Another good rehearsal with lots of off copy singing, in a VERY HOT rehearsal room! Do you remember when we used to complain that the room was a little chilly?!
Anyway - thanks for your understanding as I was a little under the weather! Much improved today, and by a good rehearsal last night.
We looked at....
The Bell Chorus and Act 2, both of which are substantially off page. We need to make sure that you're not relying too much on me, as I won't be there for the performances! Have confidence to come in, even if you end up being wrong - now is the time to make mistakes!!
As promised, here are the play through tracks for Act 1. These were not as easy to put together as Act 2, so there are some odd speed changes, and some talk from Jonathan when necessary! Also, for the bit where we've slightly changed the bass/tenor part (p.4-5), I've reduced the volume of the part you don't need to sing! It should make sense when you hear it...
Soprano - Act 1
Soprano 2 - Act 1
Alto - Act 1
Tenor - Act 1
Bass - Act 1
