CONDUCTOR'S REHEARSAL NOTES:
• The opening of this piece requires a sustained legato, much like “Laudate Pueri”. Practicing on a warm, neutral syllable will help to incorporate that legato style. Some suggestions of neutral syllables include “noh”, “loh”, etc…
• Every time that the phrase, “about you,” comes up, please make sure to separate the “t” and the “y” so that it is “about-you” and not “about-chu”. This phrase happens frequently so please write it in each time. It will help to have less aspiration on the “t” there.
• m. 20 – take a catch breath breath after “you”
• m. 32 – take a catch breath at the end of the measure, that is where you will release the “ah” vowel
