Our concert on Sunday, November 30

[wiseheart]

I thought I'd give you the full programme, so that you might be able to look up the individual parts if you want to.

Beginning: violin solo (something by Kodály)

1. Alleluia by Boyce
2. Parce Domine by Menegali
3. A part for 4 voices about the joy of singing by Pitoni - sorry, I don't know the English title, but it is gorgeous.
4. O Occhi manza mia by Orlando Lasso
5. Ave Maria by Arcadelt
6. Ave verum by Mozart

Flute solo

7. Choir from "Der Zauberflöte" by Mozart
8. The Musician's Song by Tamás Daróczi Bárdos (contemporary Hungarian componist)
9. The Two Girls Went to Pick Flowers - madrigalesque based on a Hungarian folk song by Balázs (contemporary Hungarian componist)
10. Songs from Five Continents by Erzsébet Szőnyi (who just turned 90 this year - this is a funny collection: we sing Japanese and even Swahili!)
11. The choir of the slaves from Nabucco by Verdi

It is a very ambitious programme, so wish us luck. :)

On a completely unrelated note, I've updated Arthur's Quest, thanks to my generous beta, lindahoyland.
Chapter 19 - The Judgement of the Siege Perilous is here.

It went well enough. There were a few mistakes, but only we knew it, so it wasn't too bad. We omitted the Ave Maria by Arcadelt for time-y reasons; we'll sing it next Saturday on the Christmas concert instead. I got a cold in the church, it was lousy cold, but I'm getting better, so all is well.
