Alto notes 2/13
February 17 Alto Sectional notes CHC
End of the month Rehearsal!
For Adrianne, Thea, Stephanie, Katie
Remember that Fred and Phillip have cut #12 Rachman and the "Lord, Thou
has been our refuge" Vaughn Williams pieces from the concert line-up.
Thank you all for the hard work you have been doing in preparation for
this concert. For those new to 9th century church slavonic, you are
doing well.
Thank you Marian for hosting the Sunday sectional at your home last evening. With the snow fluttering past the windows at the beginning of sectional and a warm potluck dinner awaiting us, what better way to spend a Sunday afternoon! Thank you to all for your culinary and libation offerings. Everything was delicious!
We rehearsed the Howells completely and the Vaughn Williams as well as Rach movements 15,14,13,11 and 10!
Tomorrow evening is our first rehearsal with the Alexandria Choral Society and Fred will have the split of Alto 1 & Alto 2 for us on Tuesday.
Currently we have five alto 2’s so hopefully the addition of Alexandria will round out our sound!
Thank you again to Leanne for playing the music during sectional. You are a great help.
Margaret will de distributing the tickets for this concert on Tuesday night and I believe we’ll all get posters to hang in storefronts and our office. Remember those altos who sell the most tickets will win the set of Russian nesting dolls!
