The Shanghai International Choral League (SICL) is planning to present Mozart’s Requiem—K. 626 d minor—30 May 2013 at the Shanghai Concert Hall (SCH; http://www.shanghaiconcerthall.org/ ) accompanied by the professional Shanghai Baroque Chamber Orchestra (Artistic Director Wei Meimei; http://www.mask9.com/node/69899 ). Our guest conductor will be Robert Simpson (http://www.christchurchcathedral.org/choirs/ ) of the Houston Chamber Choir (http://www.houstonchamberchoir.org/ ). A top-notch orchestra; a highly sought-after conductor—don’t miss the opportunity to sing this choral masterpiece!
We kick off this project Saturday, January 26 at 5 PM. Please meet at Christ All Saints Church, 425 Fuxing Zhong Lu, on the southeast corner of Danshui Lu and Fuxing Zhong Lu (map attached); Metro line 10, Xintiandi station.
Please mark your name on the attendance sheet upon arrival (names will be in alphabetical order by family name); new choristers are warmly welcomed and can enter their contact information in the space provided.
You should plan on Saturday rehearsals between now and May, with mandatory rehearsals starting mid-April. Details will be provided at the first rehearsal. Soon we will also provide you with a link to the practice MP3s we will use.
You may purchase your score at the first rehearsal.
Please respond if you plan to sing with us. This email is copied to our SICL chorister list, including everyone who participated in recent programs.
Please be on the lookout for more emails in the coming days in case we need to clarify anything.
Warmest regards,
David & Ann Miller, SICL secretaries, mobile phone 1381-759-2371
And finally, remember! We want a large choir for this wonderful music, so help us spread the word by forwarding this email to everyone you know who loves singing, and ask them to join us!作者: Marshmallow 时间: 2013-2-1 20:35
有点动心。。不过只参加过业余合唱排练。音准、发声方式都不太好。
