TODAY’S PLAYLIST (Subject to Change)

  • Clausen: All That Hath Life 4′
  • Stanford: Justorum animae 4′
  • Mealor Stabat Mater 7′
  • Runestad: Alleluia 4′
  • Stanford: Beati 4′
  • Thompson: Alleluia 5′
  • Stanford: Beati quorum via 4′
  • Mendelssohn: Richte Mich Gott 4′
  • Mealor: Ubi Caritas 4′
  • Hogan: Wade in the Water 3′
  • Dawson: Evry Time I Feel 3′
  • Erb: Shenandoah 3′
  • Holst: Nunc Dimittis 5′

This is what I’m thinking the program repertoire and order will look like, IF we can get the Runestad and Mendelssohn together quickly enough.

And in the “I don’t know what’s going on” department, Romina’s friend, Patrizia, will come to rehearsal with some of her singers from a children’s/youth choir. I really don’t know what that’s going to look like, except that the original intent was for our music ed majors to meet some real live Croatian students. Well see!!!???


DON’T FORGET TO EMOJI US!

We made it up to 87 emojis yesterday. Can we break 100 today??


TONIGHT’S DINNER

Here’s a link to Restaurant Brancin da Nino

And just in case you forgot, HERE’S A LINK to who we think is coming tonight, and what you ordered for dinner.

We are picking up the tab for the entire meal, and they will put water, red wine, and white wine on every table – included with the meal. If you want to order any other beverages, you can do that a la carte, but you have to pay fot that out of pocket.

DINNER IS AT 7:30 pm. If past experience is an indication, I suspect the evening will go on for at least a couple hours. They are setting tables for eight people. Be brave and mix and match to make a few new friends.


BOAT TRIP REVIEWS

DId you have a good time on the boat trip? Do Josip and his crew a big favor and take a moment to leave a review on Google. If you have some great pics, you can post those as well. Positive reviews are REALLY helpful for keeping their family-run business thriving.

I’m so pleased with the way the choir is coming together. Eager to start honing in on the concert program!

See you soon.
