AGO Singer Announcement

Dear AGO singers:

As you know, there are a number of corrections to be made in the Latin for the TE DEUM:

1. JUBILATE.

Alto in mm.110-111 write in 'lau-da' as it is in the soprano part.

Women, mm. 139-140 is 'ti-bi coe-li'. Make m. 139 quarter rest, half note (ti) and quarter note (bi), then coe becomes a dotted quarter in m.140.

Men, mm. 145-146: same change as the women above for 'ti-bi coe-li'.

Women, m.146: sing 'coe' the entire measure.

10/25/07: Singers, bluegrass band put new spin on sacred

GRAND RAPIDS -- America long has been a melting pot of music from all over the world.

That's how jazz evolved, when melody and rhythm of African-Americans met with harmonies and musical instruments that originated in Europe.

Now imagine a merger of bluegrass with sacred choral music.
