Report on March 1 rehearsal

Between 10 inches and snow and a contra dance at MIT, this was another
low-attendance rehearsal.

  • Phalese Bicinia:
    • O Maria, mater pia
    • Per illud ave prolatum
    • Qui sequitur me
    • Sancti mei
    • Fulgebunt justi
    • Sicut rosa
  • Campian, My love hath vowed he will forsake me
  • Dowland two-part songs from Second Book:
    • Flow my tears
    • Sorrow, sorrow stay
    • Dye not before they day
    • Mourne, mourne
  • I gave her cakes and I gave her ale

Performing notes

On the Campian, “My love hath vowed he will forsake me” we decided
that we will sing 4 verses, with solos on the A sections of 1-3.
Everyone not playing the bass will sing all B sections, and the A
section of verse 4. The bass part isn’t idiomatic for serpent, so it
will be played by cello and/or viol.
