Greetings, Wind Ensemble Musicians!
Congratulationsย on a spectacular Play Your Part concert performance on Saturday! Your hard work in our rehearsals, commitment to excellence, private lessons, study, and dedicated practice paid off immensely. Bravi, tutti! You should be very proud of your performance and the great music you shared with our community!
Please take some time to listen to our new pieces for our second concert cycle that will be on your stand at this Thursday’s 7:00 pm rehearsal. Here are recordings of this repertoire:
Standridge,ย Choose Joy
Holsinger,ย On a Hymnong of Philip Bliss
Hazo,ย Keltic Variations
Brittin Chambers,ย Kalos Eidos
Williams,ย Fantasy on Yankee Doodle
This concert cycle includes our run-out performance on Tuesday, February 11; please note this important event on your calendars, and be sure to schedule your schoolwork accordingly. You’ll receive more details about this performance after our winter break.
If you find you need to miss this week’s first rehearsal for our next concert cycle, please make arrangements with the MYSO office to pick up your folder, so you can continue your MYSO repertoire study during your private lesson this week.
I am excited to see and hear you all on Thursday night so we can celebrate the past weekend’s performance and look forward to the next one!
In music,
Mr.ย Hacker
Andyย Hacker, Wind Ensemble Music Director
