so are you actually going to make a CD of this stuff? in my 3 years here you've never actually given us CD's...i have to get them on the black market (AKA from Nick)

Ok...here are my comments after listening - i figure i'll put them here cause you guys will get to discuss them in class but i won't

Cantate - sounds great!

Ave - i think we blended really well on that one...i couldn't hear any breaks within each section which surprised me (cause i know i take breaths at random places in that song, so other people probably do too)

When i bring 1 - i thought it was a little difficult to understand what we were saying

when i sing - could have been better...it sounded a little lazy to me

when i bring 2 - WOW AWESOME minus the fact that it jumped and skipped 'of the flowers' and there were some weird breaks elsewhere...maybe a technical glitch?

over hill over dale - i like the tempo! it sounded great

Kondairaren - this one just sounds weird without Ur in front of it... and i think the alto/bass part of Kantare Dantzare in the first section could be a little more intense, it sounded kinda wimpy

alright that's all i have to say...if i come up with anything else i guess i just add a 3rd comment :)

thanks for letting me record with you guys! it was great to be back in the choir

you can tell Lauren has some extra time!

um... the recordings are good. I'm no fan of recording because I like things perfect but good job with the equipment/personel.

Different people than ever before stuck out in the recordings, thats kinda weird.

thats all
