Seasons of Love

Today we started to look at the start of Act 2, Seasons of love but we were sadly absent 2 members of our production today. We sat down around a piano as we wanted to mainly focus on the vocal side of the number as it is a very powerfully vocal number number. The 2 main harmony groups were Meg, Lorna and Tom in the high group and the rest of us in the lower group.We sung through the number after we each learnt our harmony until we reached "Measured in love" which me and Dom split off from the lower group to pick a new slightly higher harmony compared to the lower group. When we reache "Seasons of love" we split into boys and girls to sing.
Girls: "Seasons of love"
Boys: "Seasons of... love"
This is repeat each time we sing seasons of love. We then started to decide who we wanted as our soloists, we decided to give the first solo to Carl and split the second solo with Freya singing the the whole solo but having Dan S join in on the line "In bridges". We sung through the rest of the number and removed the soloist that sings behind our vocals as none of us felt that we had the vocal range to reach and match the notes they sing so we removed the soloist. We sung through the whole number and after Carl asked if he could sing his solo as a duet with someone as he was strugling to stay with the tune, so I volentered to sing with him so it's now a duet with betwen me and Carl. We sung throught the number and then stood up in a line to perform the number again.
