Dear friends,
For those of you new to the band our dress rehearsals are simply "run throughs without interruption." Do not dress up. We cannot get into the academy for a true dress rehearsal because it is cost prohibitive. Steve and I will spend about 10-15 minutes hitting some spots in the music then proceed with the run through. We will have some time afterwards so we’ll read:
Hallelujah Chorus
Yes Virginia There is a Santa Claus
You’re a Mean One Mr. Grinch
Happy Holidays
Out of the East
Due to next month’s impending Christmas Concert on November 28 I’d like to rehearse next Thursday as well unless there is an outcry(?)
Jim.
