One of the ASMs made me a copy of the score.  I probably don’t need it to do what I have to do but it makes it so much easier for me to understand what’s going on.  To put everything in context.  And in order.

There are 3 pieces being presented

•  “Welcome, Vicegerent of the mighty King” (Z 340)

•  Dido and Aeneas (Z 626)

•  “Why why are all the Muses mute?”  (Z 343) (second part)

I have so many questions and I get to ask them all on Saturday.  But the sound that greeted me when I showed up at the first choral rehearsal is what I guess will greet the audience on opening night. 

and it’s gorgeous.
