TREBLE CHOIR - Rehearsal preparation leading up to March 26 church service
Finish memorizing all words in Twenty-Third Psalm - An Interpretation! Parents, please have your chorister sing this song to you from memory. This is always a good way to be sure the singer knows it. In Amazing Grace sing the notes and rhythms written in this edition. We are singing verses 1, 2, and 4 (omitting 3 and 5.) Carry over breathing in 4-measure phrases! In Amazing Grace also practice taking deep breaths before long phrases, and mete out your breath to get to the end.
