If you don't mind, I'd like a little feedback on choppiness. Does the phrasing seem choppy?

Thanks,
Anita

Thank you! I will let you know as soon as I can!

Anita,

I noticed your note, and give a listen to a few various places in your recording. It sounded great. You have a very pleasant voice, and I thought your phrasing was very good. Just one opinion, but I think, just keep up the good work.

Sections 34 and 41 are PL OK!

Section 2 is PL OK! And, I agree with Wayne, I didn't find the reading to be choppy. I thought that your pace was great, and you read with the right amount of expression.

Hi Wayne

Thank-you for the kind feedback. I got some feedback about choppiness from a class on voice work. It's good see that I've improved.

Thanks for the kind feedback. I'm working on my phrasing, and it's good to see that it's improved.

Section 9 has a stumble at 18:14-:16, otherwise everything else is perfect!

I have to confess my surprise at hearing that the heir to the throne was routinely whipped and beaten.

It is surprising! That was not done to the dauphin if one valued his life! Section 9 is now PL OK! Thanks Rita!
