🎡🎢🎡 Music Notes from Thursday May 2

All in all a fine effort! Congratulations, all!   I wish I could have heard the chorus better, but there you have it....

Meanwhile, a couple of things I noticed....

#1 Prologue -
M. 20 is a 3/4 bar and not all of you are remembering that.  Please try to.  

m. 91 - 96 - S, A, G, L, Mr B - you're all supposed to be oo-ing away vigorously here.  I didn't hear it at all.
m. 140-143- Percy review lyric
m. 183 - this chord was tentative.  It really needs to blast out double forte!
m. 250 - Percy - lyric 'don't start cryin' '

BIG NOTE FOR ALL!!! END OF THIS NUMBER DOES NOT SLOW DOWN AND YOU NEED TO COUNT!!!! 

#2  Sally - don't swallow the word "stepfather" it's the first time we hear it and establish that relationship.

#5 - Percy - lines m. 17-19; m. 49
    Percy - m. 78 - prep for the high note by being prepared on "together".  The support for the high notes starts there - the air is rocket fuel that needs to whoosh you up to the high note in order to sustain it.  You can't prep for it the second you sing it.

#6 - G. P, A - m. 34-35

#7 - Chiron - don't swallow "He did vomit us up."  Great laugh line.  I missed it.

#9 - P m. 34 "I try"

#10 - m. 10 P.  need to hear clearly the word "Hades"

#12 - Grover - m. 48 - get the pitch from the base note in the preceeding 2 measures - it's F.  your starting note is one step higher on a G.

#13 - Big chunk o' lines left out at the top of the number.  Review.

#15 - Echidna - "It's a chimera" needs to be in the clear. Wait for music to stop.
TRIAD - review harmonies daily, please.

POSEIDON - make sure you emphasize "smell" when you're telling P about Gabe.  Raise the pitch of that word rather than dropping it.

#21 - CHORUS - m. 39 - hold a full measure and crescendo to the release of that chord.

#22 - NICK/BAND - Please add a treble A @ m. 18 to the chord for a cue for the singer
CHORUS - review m. 66-73
