We made good progress on “Yes, Indeed.” Remember to listen to the excellent learning tracks.
We are looking at using a VLQ (very large quartet) to perform “Daddy Sang Bass”. If you would like to be a part of it, let Larry H or Chad know.
Songs for next week:
The plan is to work hard on the songs for the Gospel Concert and to throw in a few rep songs to mix up the night. We have two months until the Gospel Concert!
“Hallelujah”
“In My Room”
“I Believe”
“You Raise Me Up”
“Yes Indeed” – in-rehearsal sectionals will be held
Good work tonight on “Something” and “Operator.” Thank you to Larry for picking out parts on the piano – this was helpful for the basses.
On “Yes, Indeed” leads need to review pages 3 – 4 for note accuracy. Remember, there is an excellent learning track on the website for this song.
Songs for next week:
The plan is to run the songs being considered for the Gospel Concert. There are seven songs here and we’ll sing the best six for the concert.
“It Is Well With My Soul”
“I Believe”
‘You Raise Me Up”
“Yes Indeed”
“Daddy Sang Bass”
“I Asked the Lord”
“An Irish Blessing”
