Hi everybody,
We will not have hard copies of “The Steadfast Tin Soldier” available this Sunday because the MYS office building has been closed all week due to the weather. So, we’ll focus our rehearsal this Sunday on Beethoven. My updated rehearsal plan is below.
UPDATED Rehearsal Plan for Sunday, January 21 (including sectionals!)
- 4:00pm-5:30pm – Percussionists with Kevin Schlossman
- 4:00pm-5:30pm – Tutti minus percussion: Work on Beethoven‘s movements 5 and 4 (in that order)
5:30pm-5:45pm – Break
- 5:45pm-7:00pm – Sectionals on movements 5 and 4 of Beethoven
- Violin 1 with Chien Tan
- Violin 2 with Greg Ewer
- Viola with Amanda Grimm
- Cello/Bass with Nancy Ives
- Woodwinds + brass with RGR
NOTE FOR HORNS AND TRUMPETS!! — You will need to transpose in the Beethoven Symphony. Check your parts carefully. I want you to practice transposing on this piece.
Thank you, happy practicing and see you on Sunday Jan 21.
Best,
Dr. G.
