SSA Honors Choir Song: Sing Alleluia, Sing
Ladies, this song is in e minor. That means the syllables "mi", "la", & "ti" are dropped down a 1/2 step making it the syllables "me", "Le" & "te".
Starting Pitches: Altos start on "Do". Sop 2 starts on "Me". Soprano starts on "So"
Time Signature: 6/8 time - triple meter - Like Skye Boat Song. A "sway" feel. The tempo is faster in this song than Skye Boat. 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3. Beat 1 is stressed. Sing al - le - LU ia
Dynamics - This song has an "A" section that repeats 4 times!! Make sure to watch the dynamics - they are different each time.
Tone/Vowels: Make sure when you are practicing, you have forward lips and dropped jaw on the word "sing". Think of it as "sehng". Keep relaxed in your throat or you will have a pinched tone the word "sing" and it will carry through to the rest of the phrase.
"Alleluia" - Pronounce: Ah - Leh- Loo (oh) - yaw......dropped jaw on the "loo" syllable almost like you're singing "loh" yah.
