Dear All
I hope you had a lovely half term all those who were away last week. Turn-out last Tuesday was quite low in the end due to holidays and illness so we kept new material to a minimum, recapping some of what we did the week before and having a first look at the second movement (II).
Sections looked at so far (*denotes covered on 18/2):
Selig (I): p1-4, b15-45
*Tranen (I): p4-9, b47-96
*Denn (II): p14-18, b22-73
Herr (III): p41-45, b17-93
Toten (VII): p114-117 , b1-34
Be prepared to look at the following sections this week (**denotes new bits!):
Selig (I): p1-4, b15-45
Tranen (I): p4-9, b47-96
Denn (II): p14-18, b22-73
**So Seid (II): p18-21, b74-123
Herr (III): p41-45, b17-93
**Du bist (VI): p98-104, b208-266

Reminder that everyone is invited to The Plough for a post rehearsal drink this Tuesday 25/2. Hope to see many of you there – I know it’s a school night but you deserve it after all that hard work…!
