Happy Sunday. It seems our bit of freezing/snowy weather has come and gone! Rehearsal is on the schedule for Tuesday, February 18th from 7-8:30 at Ashbrook School. We will not rehearse next week (2/24) so we are rapidly coming up on our concert (3/16) with one less rehearsal. Here is a note about rehearsal plans, with links, from Cheryl.
From Cheryl: HI everyone.
Hoping no one had issues w/ the freezing weather the past few days.
This coming week my goal was to run everything in the program, even tho’ a few strong players will be absent due to Oliver! tech week at CHS. I then realized we do need to run Locomotive working out the accel section w/ Trish a bit first.
Attached is the concert order. It is set up as a trip across the US, starting on the east coast and finishing in Alaska. I’ve had a number of people supply me with insights into finding photos, and some of their own photos, for use as a backdrop on each piece. Thank You! 😀
