First day of six subbing for Owen, whose wife Debbie has had their baby Harry Hebert -- congratulations! The proceedings center around VI / vi -- with Two-Part Dictation on Louis Borgeois's Old Hundredth (realizing Alto and Tenor on boards, exactly replicating an extant harmonization), Sight-Singing on same + Costanzo Festa's Quando Ritrova and Henry VIII's Pastime with Good Company, finishing with a second Board-Harmonization of the latter.
Before this, the 9:30am Theoreticians take a listen / look at Anton Webern's Five Pieces for Orchestra, Op. 10: IV, Edgar Varese's Octandre: I, and Alban Berg's Wozzeck: Act I, Scene III. March and Lullaby... followed by Dictation / Keyboard-Solfege, and Board Harmony on Sergei Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf: Peter's Theme: 6/4 Inversions and Added Tones.
