Kilroy Was Here Vocal Parts

Finally!  I know.  I'm so sorry it took me such a long time to get these videos posted.  I encountered obstacle after obstacle, but we (Bailey helped) finally got things all worked out musically, and my camera is working again.  Whew!

So, Nick, this first video is for you.  This is the tenor part, and I'm playing it an octave lower to (hopefully) suit your vocal range.  There are a couple spots where your notes are not being played in the accompaniment (on the CD) so it doesn't sound quite right.  Bailey and I figured out that those notes are the 7th in the chord, so they do fit, even though you don't hear them in the background music.  There's also a spot where I messed up a little (at the 1:13 mark), but I don't think it matters much.  It's on a part where everyone sings in unison.  Note that at 2:15 and 2:32 (in the video), you sing the same words in each spot, but the notes are slightly different.  Also, on the very last note, you'll have to cut off a little early so you can take a decent breath to say, "Yes indeed, Kilroy was here," in the proper timing.  Let me know if you have any questions.

Christian, I didn't make a video for the middle part, since you and your lovely sisters have been working at home with the other score.  (I just wanted to mention your name here so you didn't feel left out.)  ; )

Jordan and Israel, this next video is for you.  This is the melody (highest part) for the song, but I'm playing it an octave lower whenever the guys sing.  Hopefully, this will fit your vocal range.  If it doesn't, you could try practicing with Nick's video (above), but if this video (below) works for you, then I'd like for both of you to sing it, okay?  Hannah and Sarah are singing this part, and I'm guessing you'll be paired with them for some of the choreography.  It'd be helpful if you're singing the same part.  Near the end of the song, your line is, "Now all good Americans lend an ear."  The other two phrases before that are sung by different sets of people, so I only played those parts very softly.  I played your part at full volume.  (FYI, my fingers slipped a little at the 2:41 and 2:55 marks in the video, but it shouldn't be a problem, since you can hear it well on your vocal demo CD.  I'm just too pressed for time to re-record it.) 

Hannah and Sarah, I would like for both of you ladies to sing, "Now all good Americans lend an ear," near the end of the song.  I think only one of you was doing it last week--which is fine--but I wanted you to know that I'm okay with both of you singing, if you'd like to do that.
