PREVIOUS CHANCEL CHOIR INFORMATION



MOZART'S REQUIEM


Link for a webpage that give the Latin Requiem text, a pronunciation guide, and a line-by-line translation.
And this is really cool - here is a link to where someone has created a webpage where you can click to hear them speaking an example of correct pronunciation for about each three lines of text at a time!

Wikipedia article Requiem's in general, and on Mozart's Requiem in particular.

HANDEL'S MESSIAH

Link for rehearsing your part in Handel Messiah choruses.

Wikipedia article on Handel's Messiah.  Wikipedia summary of Part 1.

Link to the free download of the original manuscript of Messiah.  (Note:  clicking this link will initiate the download of a 46MB pdf file.  The file is from IMSLP, a public domain wiki of sheet music, which operates kind of like wikipedia in that everything is provided by the public at large.)






Link for UK Opera performance of Gounod's Romeo et Juliette, with our singers Rachel, Manuel, Laikin, and Markel.
The performance is nearly 3 hours long.  But if you want to skip ahead, after the opening commercial, you can skip to these spots to catch Manuel, Rachel, Laikin, Markel --- (of course, Manuel and Rachel are on stage virtually all the time!).  I don't even know where to begin to highlight Manuel, there are so many outstanding moments throughout!  Catch the major Juliette arias sung by Rachel at 27:30 and 2:19:00.  Markel first comes on at about 20:00.  Laikin begins with a big aria onstage alone at 1:35:30.  Rachel and Manuel are outstanding the whole performance. Very romantic!  Beautifully sung!  But I must say, I love the sword fighting scenes (beginning 1:41:00) following intermission and Laikin's solo. Cast interviews happen at 1:18:30.  Enjoy!
