[musictlk] choir question

[Lauren Merryfield]

Hi,
I've never had anyone help me with my braille copies of music in choirs.
I've handled all of that 
Myself. If I needed tabs, I'd put them on myself. If I needed to record
something, I'd do that myself. Some people record the whole rehearsal but I
usually choose just to record the parts I need help with. If you do those
things yourself, then it doesn't really matter who is sitting next to you,
except for rising and sitting, bowing or anything like that, but anyone
sitting next to you can help you with that kind of thing.
Thanks
Lauren

whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things
are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise,
think on these things.

Subject: [musictlk] choir question

Hello,
I am relatively new to the list (I joined last Friday.) I currently sing in
a community choir which I enjoy a lot.  The person who sat next to me this
season gave me a lot of assistance which included helping me with putting
print tabs on my music so she could help me find it faster, assisted me with
tactually understanding the explanations our director gives for how our
vowels should be formed, etc.  However, she mentioned last night she might
move to another section next season which means I would not be able to sit
next to her anymore.  Therefore, do you think it would be acceptable to ask
the director to pair me with someone who would be willing to assist with the
tasks I listed above? Since I can't just look at the director's mouth when
he gives a clue, I need that tactile help.  What do you think is the best
course of action if she indeed decides to sing a different part? I'm
comfortable with the part I'm singing now, so I don't really want to change.
Any suggesations would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Kelsey Nicolay
