Rehearsal Summary - 07/29/24

Only three of us could make it this week but we made solid progress on "Lammas Gift". Last week we learned the melody and the first verse. This week we successfully learned to apply the melody to the rest of the verses. We made a recording with just a couple minor errors. We still need some polishing, but I feel good about our progress!

If you'd like to review any of our material, the sheet music and recordings are available on our Drive. For the naming conventions of the recordings, see the document in our Drive. If you're trying to practice at home and can't quite discern your note, you can use a keyboard app to plunk out whichever ones you're having trouble with.  (This is by no means an official endorsement, but the app I use is "Voice Training - Learn to Sing" by the developer Learn to Master. It labels the notes on the keyboard and gives you real-time feedback on what note you're singing.) If you need a tutorial on how to read music, this one seems sufficient for helping you figure out which note you want to find on the keyboard.

We received an extremely generous donation of $80 this week! That entirely covers the rent for our next two rehearsals and a but towards one after that! Thank you so much to our generous donor, we really appreciate it! If you would like to track our accounting, you can view our donations and expenses spreadsheet and receipts on our Drive.

We can't wait to sing with y'all!

P.S. I'm sorry I'm so late with updates. I've been laid low with Covid while my brother was in town visiting for Lughnasadh and could only do the bare minimum. I don't appear to have transmitted it at rehearsal but I'll be sitting out the 8/6 rehearsal while I recover.
