MTed you hit the big issue that gets me; the amount of serious rehearsal. For once I'm in a duo where I am often the one saying, "I think that's okay we can do this one." Instead of saying "Can we go over that last verse again, I'm not sure enough of my harmony." I've sung in a couple of small choirs and the fighting can get very fierce over who gets what solo part, its not the best voice but the strongest personality that decides it, when that's the conductor that's fine but when one of the singers has the conductor under their thumb its awful. Clinton said that on many of the issues decent musicians know the difference between what works and what doesn't. I'm not so sure of that. I know that my background in music is different from my partner's background so we each aim for a slightly different sound from the music. The saving grace of course is that we can respectfully disagree about it and still keep working. We are willing to try what the other suggests and hear how it sounds instead of dismissing it out of hand. Sorry for the ramble, good rehearsal last night.
