The Doxology:
First time through, we all play the “A” part or “melody”. The second time through, 1st violins play “A” part again, 2nd violins play “B” part, violas play “C” part, cellos play “D”. Cellos, make sure you understand the shift note. Ask for help if you don’t know how. Be sure to watch me for the fermatas!
Bring all three books on stage with you next week! Be sure to rosin your bow before class.
