Katherina Weyssin

Sicut Cervus is a glorious part-song by Palestrina. This rehearsal is aimed at people who are comfortable singing part-music from score (though you don't have to be able to sight-read). 

The idea is to practice Sicut Cervus thoroughly (learning parts from scratch if necessary) so we can sing confidently at All Comers' Chorus ... and maybe even Half Circle Theatre.

We'll be singing at the original pitch (starting on F, a tone lower than in the Lochac Snog Book). You'll still be able to use the Snog Book if singing a tone lower doesn't bother you.

Here's the music in modern notation, from Choral Public Domain Library.

If you already know this piece well, please do come along anyway - the more confident singers we have, the easier it will be for everyone to learn. If you'd be happy to lead one of the parts please do drop me a line in advance, or say so at the start of the session.
