MOVEMENT 1
Tenors - keep air spinning at the ends of phrases. Also, "DAW", not "DOH" - way more space and depth, please, with no dipthong.
The "luceat" entrances on the first two pages - WATCH! Several people came in early everywhere!
WHAT?!?!?! SOPRANO early "exaudi" - it's BEAT 1!!!!!
I know that it's Friday and you are tired, but that run through was extremely sloppy. Mistakes everywhere. Get some rest tonight and pay attention tomorrow! Don't get distracted by the lights and the new stuff. Focus.
MOVEMENT 2
M. 20 - watch! When you are done singing m. 30, gentle page turns into the next choral section. You did a good job not following along with the solo, but your page turns are super loud!
Great job watching at the "amen" - keep your air spinning and flowing until the very end.
MOVEMENT 3
Don't press on m. 19-22, it was very strident.
Don't move at the end of the movement, when Mrs. Keyes is playing her solo!
MOVEMENT 5
Please have a tab or paperclip at the start of this movement so you can turn right to it after the soloist sits.
TENORS?!? What was that word bobble?
Final "SS" was not together in m. 88. Also, don't make it too long.
MOVEMENT 6
Don't follow along with the solo, please. Also, try to be as still as possible, some of you wiggle a lot.
The "dies irae" was super lackluster as an entrance - don't forget the bright "dee" he wanted.
M. 119, don't breathe there, that's the middle of the word!
MOVEMENT 7
Remember, the end - don't turn the page and be still!
See you tomorrow night, folks! Invite lots of people!
