****** UPDATED ON 11/14/24 WITH SHORTER REHEARSAL TIME *****
Hi all,
Great concert Sunday night! I’m proud of everybody’s fearless and committed performances. We’ll do a little debriefing on Sunday, and we’ll dive right into our new repertoire.
Rehearsal Plan for Sunday, November 17
- 4:00pm-5:20pm – Rachmaninoff, Piano Concerto No. 2 – listen to each movement and read as much as we can.
- 5:30pm-6:15pm – Frazar Henry: “Seas of Glass” (YCP piece): read first draft of piece with composer on video call.
- 6:15pm – end of rehearsal to transition to 7pm Community Concert
Part assignments for January 12 concert
Please click the button below to check part assignments for this concert. As always, my part assignments are not rankings. I like rotating leadership and positions whenever possible. These assignments are subject to change.
Access practice parts on the MYS website
We’ll have hard copies of everything on Sunday, but please go to our Online Music Library to print practice parts for this week. I strongly recommend that you spend some time on the Rachmaninoff, even if it’s listening to a recording and following along your part (while annotating it as needed).
The password to access our Online Music Library is playmys.
Stay after rehearsal to support your peers (Community Concert at 7:00pm @ All Saints)
There will be an MYS Community Concert in the church upstairs starting at 7:00pm. Stay if you can to support your friends, including percussion, MYSfits and our jazz groups.
Happy practicing,
Dr. G.
