And I am home two hours early! We began at 11:00 on the dot with the men's Madrigal, following which we sent Patrick Cummings, our leading man, off to his matinee at the Irish Rep. Then we did the Tally Sessions' three numbers. Thing were going so smoothly that we also got the second half of "Let's Begun" with the quartet and the septet, which was scheduled for the afternoon after Tally had gone off to his matinee. Jeanne Lehman, Laura Daniel, and Steve Cole sang with the ensemble for "Clementina." We finished at 1:20, recorded a line of Steve's to be inserted into the Act One Finale dialogue, and broke for lunch a half hour early.
After break, we did the men's ensemble on "Lovely To Look At," sent three men home and recorded the Act Two quartet version of "Let's Begin." That set, we had nothing else to do today. On Tuesday night, when Rob's rehearsals with Steve Martin's workshop are over for the day, we'll record the two ensembles with Jason Graae, "Act One Finaletto" with Patrick and Tally, and his big number with the boys in the band, "Don't Ask Me Not To Sing." During the day,we'll plough through the dialogue.
