THIS Wednesday morning at 8:30 IN THE THEATER. Bring backpacks into the theater with you. The band is rehearsing in 1412 at that time. Please get your instrument quietly. Some of the tempos are a little slower than we will take, but this is the version that we are playing. A Christmas Festival - String Orchestra This is a pretty good recording of A Christmas Festival. The piece really starts at 1:50 in the recording. A Christmas Festival Wednesday October 25 & November 1 In order to have the best performance possible, two combined rehearsals will be held the two Wednesday mornings prior to the performance on November 2. This will provide time to get used to the full sound of both classes together and to give time to get bowings and such unified between both classes. The Wednesday morning time removes the issue of sports events/play practice, etc. If you cannot attend both of these rehearsals, you must speak with me ASAP! Here is a link to hear a piece I'm thinking of adding for the December 13 concert. It is full orchestra, but you can get the idea... www.jwpepper.com/sheet-music/media-player.jsp?&type=audio&productID=10280158 Please be aware that your mid-quarter grade is participation ONLY for rehearsals. Your audition will be your first individual PERFORMANCE test and will be graded as such.
The mid-quarter grades are due before you have your playing/seating test so the mid grades may not reflect that performance grade. In other words.... your grade may look different AFTER the seating audition than it does earlier in the week. I will take questions and give explanation again during class on Tuesday.
