Our first full rehearsal of "Purchase of Manhattan" was a great success. We managed to read through the entire 40-minute work, plus lots of "spot" rehearsing that in itself amounted to another full run-through. The chorus is sounding great, the traditional American Indian singers were wonderful! the soloists are awesome! and the instrumentalists are as professional as you can get. So everyone is doing a fantastic job on this new composition. Only a few days left till showtime on Sunday afternoon! There are some snap shots taken of the rehearsal in the "photos" tab, so check them out HERE.
