Dear Utah Youth Musicians!
Welcome to week four!
I love how you’re becoming fearless in the world of enharmonics and unexpected accidentals ha!
Looking forward to great rehearsals this weekend!
Love,
Barb

Parent Meetings
Thank you to all of you who attended the parent meetings. I’m sorry to say that the Zoom recordings didn’t go as planned. I’m sorry to say that those won’t be available. The meetings are really just a chance for us to meet parents and talk face-to-face. If you missed the meeting, not to worry – you didn’t miss anything you can’t find in the weekly announcement emails and in the student handbook. If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to email me.
Small Sectionals for UYSO and UYPhil
We have small sectionals next week (October 9th and 10th). This is one of the BEST things about UYS – the chance to work with some of the best players and teachers in Utah on your parts.
For those of you in smaller sections (woodwinds/brass), it’s really important to let us know as soon as possible if you’ll miss that week. We don’t want any of our amazing sectional coaches showing up with nobody to work with!
January Concert Info
Our January concert date has been set.
Sunday, January 24th at Abravanel Hall!
Call time will be 4:00 for a sound check, then we’ll break for dinner before the 7:00 pm concert.
Combined Rehearsal
Everyone in UYPhil and UYSO will rehearse on Saturday, January 23rd from 9:00-11:30. We are trying to schedule another combined rehearsal and we’ll let you know as soon as possible when that will happen.
