Rhythm and pitch drill
singing scale using different rhythmic patterns
Pala Pala--use the "p" for breath connection. Tuesday singers used panting breath exercise followed by melody to achieve good intonation on higher notes. Last year's singers/camp singers help model each of the melodies. Solfeggio for third melody.
59th Street Round
Divide into 4 groups by birthday. Memorize a line of each verse. Helpful hint: each part of the round works if you do all four lines of the round 1st, da capo with 3 lines + line of verse, da capo with all four, da capo 3 + line of verse, etc.
Haven't figured out how to end it!!
Pupu Hinuhinu
Review movement. Put the differing phrases on the board for the 3 verses: kahakai, e lohe, e moe
Add counter melody. Discover parallel harmony. Try 2 parts today.
Million Clouds Away
Memorize 1st verse. Sing all the way through piece.
Housekeeping: Madrigal Dinner auction forms distributed.
