Repetition, repetition, repetition, repetition, is how Sutton Elementary Music teacher Vic Harrison is teaching third and fourth grade members of the Sutton Elementary Chorus how to sing their parts in Italian for the Owensboro Symphony Orchestra's performance of Puccini's La Boheme.
They will perform Sunday in Act 2, which calls for a group of children to sing.
"The hardest part is getting all the words into the very fast tempos and complex rhythms that Italian opera sometimes includes. Puccini certainly does that in Act 2," explained Harrison. "It's difficult because they are third and fourth graders, but they also pick up well on foreign languages because they are third and fourth graders," said Harrison.
