We're working hard and learning loads. Well done with all you've achieved so far. Keep listening to the parts below so that you're really familiar with your own part. Remember, when we go to New Buckenham church, you'll all be sitting in different places and the people you rely on who normally sit behind you won't be there so, the more self sufficient you are the better our performance will be.
No new bits for next week but we'll look at the rest of the Offertorium (from 15-17).

Chris (alto) has sent me this link which gives you a translation of the requiem, very useful and will help you capture the right mood. Thanks Chris.

It was truly a vile inn.
My friend said I’d never be any good at poetry because I’m dyslexic. I proved her wrong. So far I’ve made three jugs and a vase.
