QUOTES FROM REHEARSAL!



-       “The musical joyousness doesn’t occur until the next to the last
bar”


-       The rule of missing dress rehearsal is you may not get a chair”


-       (re: hallelujah) “Don’t bop the ‘jah”


-       “I don’t care if you breathe” (note: shamelessly taken out of
context!)


-       (re: the melismatic passages in Messiah's YOKE) “Two forms, short
and long, like the census”


-       “I gotta say altos your measure 122 is one of my favorite, good
job, pat your neighbor on the back”


-       “We need automatic seat belts in the seats so no one stands!”
