I don't understand how our choral director sees no contradiction in the way he wants us to loosen up and not sing so square, but at the same time to hit every nuance exactly the way the singers did on particular recordings. The reason eg Carole King did it so awesome is because she wasn't obsessing about doing a triplet with a slight hang in it (or something). It just doesn't work to do both at once.
I'm having a hard time with this one line in my revision of Lingère. Edit: NEVER MIND, I figured it out!
(But in Things I Do Get - I finished saving all the articles I wanted and have started to actually look at them. Sad to say but my brain kept repeating "intellectual lightweight" at me lately - but Costume's articles made me realize that I'm not stupid, Dress's article length and style is not the only way to do things.)
