Jenny's notes from the recording, 16th April
Arno had us ha ha ha-ing up and down scales. Good breathing exercise to practise at home - deep breathe and say 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 2 and two and three and four and 3 and 2 and three and four and 4 and 2 and three and four and...

Gaelic Set
Sown an ilye At the ends of the verses FIRST time through do a slight crescendo into verse 2nd time through.
Lux
Vair NOT ver lut. and rich sound
Bar 24 - join et canuntetcanuntet NOT et canunt et canunt
DON'T break or breathe or sneeze between et and canunt
Bar 25 Match the 'p' so we're all singing same p (think this is a dynamic not a consonant)
Basses come in in time
Sops at G SHARP come off all together (last page) and Anne heard an F Sharp
Everyone respond on the last page
Otherwise we did a good recording. And if there were any more notes sorry but my music was in a muddle by this time and my notes were in there somewhere and I was plagued by a troll several times.
