Music

Castle on A Cloud

  • learn notes for B section
  • Think about how to sing it with emotion

I will bring music for "I just can't wait to be King"  next week 

Note on singing in choir - do what you know how to do. If the director asks for vibrato, know that he is asking for "vibrant singing". It weird fake opera wobble noise - stick to what you know and don't let it get you off track.
