Lorraine’s notation project, solo work
Here are illustrations of what Lorraine did during her work experience. Her project was to notate the act 3 solo of the ballerina role n Don Quixote (Kitri)- the one she describes in her diary blog.
Version 1
Version 1 (working score):
She was originally given a version written for an earlier production that she used for making notes and amendments to the current version.
Version 2
Version 2:
She then started writing it out, but although the notation content was quite accurate, the layout was not efficient enough to be used in the studio during the rehearsal process.
Version 3
Version 3 (master score):
Final version with a very clear layout and an excellent tool for use in the studio
This is a world in which I am totally unfamiliar but find fascinating to learn about what goes on behind the scenes of the performances that dazzle and enchant us. Good luck with your career. Very best wishes, Patricia
