Any questions? This anthem was a poem before it was tune, - TopicsExpress



          

Any questions? This anthem was a poem before it was tune, therefore the phrasing is obvious. So when all other musical considerations are taken care of (in tone, in tune and in time) I always listen to the phrasing. And further, if you are going to perform this in an accoustical environment where there are several seconds of reverb, you better practice there because what you are hearing is not the truth. The speed of light is a constant, the speed of sound is not. The best way to think of this is that room or space you are playing in is a part of your instument. Violate this rule at your own peril. Finally, the SSB is about we and us, not about I and me. It it is not about how brilliantly you can improv around the melody. JMO, Just my opinion. JPO
