From Dr. Whitmire Posted on December 22, 2009August 1, 2010 (12/21/09) Dear Singers- I hope this message finds you enjoying a wonderful holiday. I love snow, in part because it forces me to slow down some. I hope you enjoy it in the same way. If you’ve ever wondered what I mean when I say things like, “Altos, your singing the third of an F minor triad,” or “Choir, we are in compund meter here…a dotted quarter gets the beat,” then you would benfefit from my on-line MUS101 Basic Musicianship that is offered this Spring. I use a very effective on-line curriculum that is engaging and fun. The more each of understands about music, the more we grow as a chorus. If you are not presently studying singing, please consider taking MUS131 Beginning Class Voice. Whether its your first time studying singing or a refresher for seasoned singers, it is guaranteed to improve your sound. The better each of us sounds, the better we sound as a chorus. I look forward to seeing you all in the New Year (Tuesday, January 12). Peace on earth!
