[musictlk] lord nelson mass

[Kelsey Nicolay]

Hello,
My choir is singing the Lord Nelson mass (Haydn) in the spring.  
I've already requested the Braille score from nls, so it should 
be here soon.  I'm singing the alto part.  However, I've never 
sung it before, so I'm not sure how difficult it is.  Has anyone 
sung the alto part of this piece? It's not the language I'm 
worried about, it's the notes.  I posted before that I have 
trouble with high notes, so are there any I will have to worry 
about? I'm singing alto 2 (if there is indeed an alto division).  
The piece is in Latin and I've sung in Latin many times, so that 
won't a problem.  Any comments on the difficulty of this piece 
for altos would be greatly appreciated.  By the way, I'm not a 
soloist.  I'm talking about the choral parts.
Thank you,
Kelsey Nicolay
