Hi folks,
Following are repertoire assignments. To those who submitted requests, thank you for being proactive! To those who didn't, no harm at all, but know that I always welcome requests. Whether or not they are honored is beside the point! Knowing what sparks your interest helps me choose material that will hopefully be enjoyable for you.
Thanks to those who have sent schedules so promptly. There are a few of you who have not yet submitted your availability. Remember that Monday is the deadline. Start the semester off right!
Plan on having one piece learned enough to work in your first lesson, even if it's just the notes. Be sure to translate everything you sing BEFORE even beginning to learn the music. If your piece is from a larger work (opera, musical, or even oratorio), know who you are, why and to whom you're singing it, and how the piece fits into the overall arc of the show. If you have taken both semesters of diction, go ahead and give foreign languages a stab, unless you're truly terrified and would rather wait. I'd love to see you give it a try if you are equipped to do so!
Once your pianist is assigned--I'll be able to relay that information once I have everyone's schedules--send both him and me a PDF of your music at least several days in advance, as we now both work from iPads. If you need help doing that, let me know.
