Item Action
1 Duncan warmed us up in his own inimitable way.  
2 I Want to Break Free – better, needs softening in placed, own the words Hope you all made notes
3 Blood Red Roses – Timing needs focus, essential for this song, its a rope hauling number, and gusto Work on timing with metronome-ALL
4 Agincourt Carol – Lou concentrated on the slow and faster sections and softer parts for improved dynamics. Lou to decide on ending, whether main chorus or return to introduction as per song. Lou- in your hands
5 Hallelujah – Robin constantly missing the timing but Seb very patient – crisp transition from note to note required no sliding except where written.  

 

ALL

6 Stand By Me – Seems to be there, and we had Duncan and Daniel singing sops[ yes Daniel, svelte and bubbly, popped in and wild horses couldn’t hold him back from singing. Whoopee do

 

7 Better Be Home Soon – Improving all the time. Robin will work on his part, Duncan has given a steer. Lou needs to decide if she is singing this song or not.

Notify song leader asap.
