Greetings!
This is Julie Gardner, Managing Director of Lincoln Youth Symphony. For previous emails (or to read this one in another location), see the Lincoln Youth Symphony Blog, our Weekly Rehearsal Report, here.
Happy Note:
All music, including the missing flute music, has been located -- thanks to the folks at Abravanel Hall who mailed it to us.
(Sarah, I once again never ended up with Justin's email address. Could you forward this to him?)
Today's Rehearsal:
Sight reading is good for us... Right?
Here is what we are feverishly praciticing for the final concert with Youtube links that were worth recommending:
- Lord of the Dance
- (There are many recordings of this... I think we're mostly familiar with it)
- Don Gillis's Intermission - 10 minutes
- (There will be no recordings of this - we'll have to learn it the old fashioned way by woodshedding!)
- Grieg's Peer Gynt - In the Hall of the Mountain King
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEXAruiTSjk (watch this for the winds score)
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W26gP95nfXY&feature=channel_page (watch this for the strings score)
- Dvorak's New World Symphony - Scherzo (3rd Movement)
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKtHuHtRdVc (One of many recordings - No nifty scores on this one!)
Here is your assignment: Listen to this music. Get to know where your problem spots are, start practicing, and come prepared to ask questions and work problem spots. We have very little time to prepare, and we want to do a good job.
Rehearsal schedule for March 14th:
We will begin our rehearsal at 8:30 a.m. Call time is 8:15 a.m. Please be there on time so we can start on time. You have been doing a good job with this. Thank you for being on time! Remember, please set aside Friday, April 24th at 7:00 p.m., on your calendar. This is the date of our final concert. Then set aside Thursday, April 23rd from 4-6 p.m. This is our extra rehearsal.
Just a reminder: if you will not be attending a rehearsal, or will be leaving early or coming late, please contact me at 435.723.8262 or reply to this email. Thank you in advance for your courtesy! I try to make it very easy to provide notification, and I have been impressed with everyone's communication skills this year! You are wonderful.
