Hello,

Jim is safely settled in Israel and he has entrusted me with Thursday’s rehearsal. I look forward to sight-reading new music with you for our upcoming concert.

Remember, rehearsal is at HERITAGE HIGH SCHOOL, 3101 Wards Ferry Road in Lynchburg. Go around to the back of the High School between the baseball fields and the school and you should see the band room on your right.

Rehearsal order:

Balance Chords

36 Chorales #5 and #13 – to work on listening and working together

Yorkshire Ballad – for expression and beauty of tone

Entry of the Gladiators – slowly, for notes

Magnificent 7 – excellent for working on articulation

Procession of the Nobles – slowly, for notes

At a Dixieland Jazz Funeral

King Cotton – if time allows, to work on 6/8 time

REMINDER: Go to http://music.lynchburgpops.org to download music

We have time before our next concert, so we will let out at 8:30. I’m looking forward to working with you!

Steve Williams, Band Director
