First rehearsal went very well I thought. Nice to see some returnees to the MPO fold - particularly Mike Mortimore and the lovely Jessie Copper. A new face was Tina - probably a soprano. Chris and Neil did their introductions, Anne Marie arrived and off we went. I took the chorus through the opening and ending of Act 1 plus a couple of others. All went well but Neil's scoring package has the same sort of fault as Noteworthy Composer in that chromatic notes often get the wrong accidental e.g. D# instead of Eb. This makes some of the lines a bit hard to read. still once we got the sense of the music it all proved pretty good. Chris thinks that with those who turned up last night plus a few others (e.g. Tony White and John Forrest) we will have a good show. Caroline was at a prom last night but hopefully will be there to take the baton next week.
