No show next week as there is a voice only day at the studio back to normal the week after - there will be a repeat show on Saturday though.
5 more opera classics to listen to this week as the choir tackles them for the first time - will tell you more on the show.

Show 91- Tuesday 17th April 2012 repeat Saturday 21st
This there are a couple of Easter themed tunes to start from a choir in Torquay, which is about 10 minutes.
Then we listen to the first rehearsal of the opera classics from South Devon Choir - Handel, Purcell and Bizet feature this week. Last week was the final practice with the soloists and musicians at the venus, this week is the other end of the spectrum, lots of wrong notes and note bashing but you can hear it taking shape. They have lots to learn in the coming weeks so i hope you will listen in with them leading up to their concert at the end of June.

Show 90- Tuesday 10th April 2012
This week, as planned, we hear a selection of the solo parts from the Petite messe Solonnelle by Rossini, which we have been following. As there aren't quite enough to fill the time we will also hear the same soloists singing the solos from Rosini's Stabat Mater when they sang with South Devon Choir in 2010. I'll tell you more on the show.
Hope you can listen in.

Show 89- Tuesday 3rd April 2012
Back to normal service (I hope) for tomorrow. It's Monday night - I've just finished preparing the recording I got of Rossini's Petite Messe solonnelle on Saturday afternoon at Central Church, Torquay and have more material than I can put on this show, so it will cover two weeks. This week we will listen to all the choir items, which all include the soloists in some way or other and next week I will play the wonderful solos that were performed by the pro's. I hope you may have become familiar with some of the pieces and will enjoy to hear them in the finished form.
I hope you can listen in - if not the show will be going in the "listen to Past Shows" section of this blog on Wednesday for you listen to at a future time.
