La Rejouissance Rehearsal - 4/1/11

The best song I think that we played that day is La Rejouissance, The one mistake that we did is in measure four the notes were not in tune. We had good intonation, dynamics, and the rit. was great.

I don't think we were very confident in the beginnig, but we fixed all of our mistakes. We may have been a little out of tune in a few places, but we had an especially strong ending, which is great.

At measure 4 the notes played were slightly out of tune but the rest of the song was spot on in being in tune. Also at measure 30 to 35 we seem to be going too fast.

I think the first violins messed up at measure 4 on the 4th finger A it sounded a bit sharp.

At the pick up at measure 25, I think maybe someone was a little ahead. But overall I think it was good.

I think the intonation and the dynamic was very good. People watched for the ritardando. Some people didn't play all the quarter notes staccato.

Somewhere in the beginning there was a violin that played an out of tune note, and there was also a little trouble on intonation in m. 56. I think we did pretty well when it came to changing from forte to piano, and thought overall it was a good performance.

Like many before me, i state that the beginning had a badly out of tune note that made your inner string player cringe. At the parts 25-28 and 45-48 i saw that there was slight out of sync both right before and after the accents are played. Although the accents themselves are played well and the crispness of notes throughout the piece were very well done. At the end there was a bit of out of tuneage, but i saw whoever did it quickly fixed it so no probelm there. Overall, we can definitly improve how we did, but it's coming along.

I think at measures 25 through 32 some people were ahead than others. Overall it's good.

I do agree with the others, that in the begnning, we had a few notes that were to say the least, U-G-L-Y-! After that though I think it sounded about a 2 or 3. The reason I say that is because, we had a fair amount of f sharps that were hideouse, but other than that we were good.

I think at the beginning, the violins were slightly out of tune but it got a whole lot better. The volume throughout the piece was pretty much spot on also. Also the last note was surprisingly well in tune.

I heard second violins and some first violins play legato at times and really short stacato at other times

we played longer notes on the quater notes when they should of been strong and short bow storkes.

I think we did very well on measures 17-32 on dynamics and intonation. But i think 1st violins could have been stronger on the first 2 measures.

I think it sounded good overall but there were a couple notes that varied in pitch.
