I am reporting on our latest rehearsal (earlier this morning). Thanks to everyone who came out and played, especially our fabulous pianist and set player! Here are some rehearsal notes:
- We rehearsed the following pieces:
- El Capitan: Be aware that the group has a tendency to slow down. Also, please play dynamics!
- Choeur Danse: Maintain a light and charming style.
- Nimrod: Work on breathing (we shouldn't all breath together!).
- Bohemian Rhapsody: Be sure to really exaggerate all dynamics and check any tricky rhythmic parts.
- Academic Festival: Keep up the forward momentum, and be sure to play any tricky rhythms exactly.
- West Side Story Medley: Be sure to count your parts exactly, or find someone to help you! Also, play dynamics. And any other pesky markings on the page, (if you still need a new copy of your part as of 3/19, be sure to pick it up at the next rehearsal).
- Next week we will meet at CLS. Park in the back lot and enter through the athletic entrance (check your email for more details, or click here for a map).
- We usually have a tasty reception after the concert is over, so be thinking about what would be good to bring (check your email for the sign-up list).
