Grand Singers & Chorale -
It was so great to see (and hear!) so many of you last week! What a joy to be starting back up again!
As I told you last week, I will be gone this week, but I leave you in super capable and talented hands! I will be back next week!
This week we work on the front half of the music, which is the first 5 pieces. Just so you know, here's the order for this week:
A Christmas Carol
A One-Horse Open Sleigh
Carols of Joy and Hope
A Hanukkah Wish
Santa Clause is Comin' to Town
Natalie Morrison will be helping us out with the Hebrew this week. She will speak it slowly for you to follow, but in advance, mark your music with the 'English' or phonetic version of the Hebrew:
Ma-oz tzur y’shu-a-tee L’cha na-eh l’sha-bey-ach
Tee-kon bety t-fee-la-tee V’sham to-dah n-za bey-ach
L’yet ta-chin mat-bey-ach Mee-tzar ham-na-be-ach
Az eg-more b-shir miz-mor Chanukatha-miz-be-ach.
There are many repeated sounds, and if you start it super slow, just speaking it, you will slowly get the hang of it! I don't expect we'll have it in one rehearsal, so don't give up!
