Hello Group,
We had a lovely turnout this past Thursday, and began work on the Morten Lauridsen piece, ‘Dirait-on.’ For those of you who would like more information about the piece, there’s a lovely video the composer made on how he wrote it (thank you, Wendy).
Here’s a performance of it by some Canadians– remember, he wrote it for 4 voices (SATB), we arranged it for 3 voices (SAB). I think they could have organised the back row of men in a more visually agreeable pattern. And see if you can spot Anna Crabtree.
There are oodles of performances online, if you wanna do some trawling.
And in my usual overkill, I put together a document on singing in French, including the translation. But most of you are already pretty terrific: Dirait-on translation
See you on the 26th for more hilarity.
Carol
