UYPhil
- Back to work this week! Get ready to sight read!
- The piece is Berlioz Symphonie Fantastique. It would be good to listen to it in advance. Sight reading is a lot easier when you know what it should sound like!
- Remember to RSVP for the Madeleine festival. Let us know if you have any questions. Rehearsal Jan. 29 and concert Jan 30
UYSO
- Concert week you guys!
- Rehearsal Saturday morning is off campus. Please check your calendars!
- Sound check will start promptly at 5:00 pm. Please be there in plenty of time to park and be in your seat ready to go at 5:00 sharp.
- We will have sandwiches, chips, fruit, etc. for a pre-concert meal.
- No tickets required for the concert. It’s free, open admission
- We still need some parents to help out with concert day stuff.
- Duties include keeping an eye on kids while they eat and hang out (I know – easy job) and help put sandwiches together during sound check (still easy – really not that much work).
- I have 3 volunteers signed up as of right now, and I could use at least 6-7 more.
- Please remember to RSVP for the Madeleine festival. Let us know if you have any questions. Rehearsal Jan. 29, concert Jan 30.
Prelude
- It is the week before the concert! Dan asked me to pass on a few things:
- We will play each section of our music straight through, so be prepared for that.
- The Carmen Suite is available to listen to on YouTube: click here.
- Please listen before Saturday!
- All musicians are highly encouraged to work on your music with your private teacher in the next week. It’s a big help!
- Parent volunteers
- I could use a couple more parents to help me with food during the rehearsal so we can all socialize a little bit after the concert. It always ends up being a really nice activity, both for parents and kids.
- Fine Arts West doesn’t have any tables available for us to use. I’m wondering if any Prelude parents have portable/foldable tables we could use for the reception?
