Announcements
Our Spring Concert is just around the corner.... March 21, 2010 We will be presenting Howard Goodall's Eternal Light Requiem
Many of you have told me already how very much you are loving this music! I appreciate your work on it so far, and you are sounding good! In Howard Goodall's words, its "intended to provide solace to the grieving....." (read his Forward at the front of your score.)
If you would like to participate, but have been unable to make one of the last two Wed. night rehearsals, let me know (reply to this email or call me) and I'll make arrangements to get you the music and a CD. Hurry, only four Wed. nights left before the Orchestra rehearsal
Soloist auditions:
If you are interested in auditioning for a solo, please let me know so that I can schedule a time for you. Auditions are taking place on Mon. evening, Mar. 1 from 6:30 - 8:00 pm. Sitting in with me will be Barry Barrios and Beth McConnell. It's important that you contact me (reply to this email) to schedule a time to audition.
Small Ensemble:
If you would like to be considered to participate in a small ensemble (which will perform movements 2 and 8) please let me know. Those decisions will be based upon the sound and blend/balance of the group etc, but let me know if you're interested. That group will likely rehearse before and/or right after our regular Wed. rehearsals. (If you raised your hand at last night's rehearsal, I have your names already. Otherwise, let me know). The ensemble members will need to be present at the orchestra rehearsal on Saturday, Mar. 20th.
