Talma Notes

The text for the Talma pieces may be found at these links:

anyone lived in a pretty how town

love is more thicker than forget

Other notes (please mark in your parts):

anyone lived in a pretty how town:

• Dynamics are very specific (and thus important) - please take a minute before the rehearsal to mark them in your parts. For example: in measure 27, soprano line is p with underlying lines pp and is marked en dehors (with emphasis).

• watch the slight tempo change at meas. 35 into 36 and at meas. 80.

• watch ritenuto (hold back) at measure 95 - 96 with a tempo at 97.
