Harmonies 1

So today was our first group practice! We met in Mrs. Shemmel's room for lunch and 5th period which was about an hour and 45 minutes. We spent the time looking for music for our 4 parts: Soprano 1 Summer, Soprano 2 Elena , Alto1Mackenzie, Alto 2 Carrie. It was hard because most music we found was not in the parts we needed. With pentatonix being our inspiration, we decided to start off with one of their easier songs. We choose white winter hymnal. In this piece there is 5 parts. We chose to only use the first 3 parts because the other two were too low. The 3rd part was still pretty low so we decided to change it an octave higher and have summer sing that part. So Summer sings Scotts part an octave higher. I sing Kirstie's part and Mackenzie and Carrie sing Mitches part. We decided to have 2 people sing the lowest part because with our high voice parts it is harder to hear the lower notes when combined.
