Hello, Halifax Concert Band members.
Here is the rehearsal scheme for this next rehearsal on Tuesday, April 12, at 6:30 pm. It will be in the band room at Halifax West High School, as has been established. On this episode, we’ll warm up with some chorales from the /More Assorted Chorales/ sheet. After that, my plan is to slug through most, if not all of the repertoire candidates for our proposed concert in June.
It would be good to have these tunes in presentable shape for the rehearsal on the 19th., so that Dave can have a good idea about what he would like to program. Yes, he will return on the 19th. and I will return to the ranks.
Here are the tunes we will play THIS Tuesday: /A Childhood Remembered/ /Praeludium / /Star Trek Through the Years/ /Sea Songs/ /Lincoln/ /We Want it All/ /Waltz in the Old Style/ /Jump n the Line/ /In Their Honor/ /Curtain Call/ (We’ll_try_ this, but the band executive may have to free up funds in order to hire an octopus to play the percussion 2 part).
*Note:* This isn’t the rehearsal order, but I can tell you that /In Their Honor/ and/Curtain Call/ will be the first and second selections. After that, tunes will be called as necessary.
I look forward to seeing you on Tuesday. Stay healthy now.
Mark Cuming First Officer- Deputy Conductor
