  • Please do begin to look over your parts for these selections; be sure to check that you have a variety of parts with which you are happy (i.e. not all 1st parts, etc.).
  • If you have any other music that you think we should consider for our upcoming concert, please bring it to our next rehearsal!
  • Please consider which pieces you may be interested in conducting.
Special thanks to everyone who helped set up and tear down this week!
Our next rehearsal will be February 25th at MCC.  Please plan on arriving by 8:45 am; see you then!
