What Was I Made For (sing AT YCF)
Notes from Ms. Altonen:
Don't clip "just" and "something", keep it round
m. 12-16 soprano confidence
m. 19-20 MORE crescendo
m. 35: chord should ring, feel like a "woosh" of sound
m. 43 don't die off
"But I" section - top voice don't be scared to start, be confident!!
m. 67 "hmm"s should be warmer, rounder
m. 71-73 middle voice keep it tall and gentle
m. 77 be more committed to the slides, they should be dramatic BUT you still have to count
I Am Here
Clean up the last page
More middle voice sound overall
Watch out for the word(s):
"voices" --> its a diphthong
"day" --> deh
Home practice last week for this song was not adequate.
