I had a lot of people sign up to help with food at the Christmas Party. Please reply and let me know if you are still interested in helping that day. I need one person to head up setting out potluck treats that day, and a few more to plan on an extra nice offering, so we can stack the deck in our favor.

This is going to be a great weekend!

Retreat!

Greetings!

There was a paper handed out Saturday that was the Retreat Info Revised!

I just want to make sure everyone gets it, even those not at rehearsal last Saturday, so I have linked to it here. It's all good info -- including the address to the camp. 

The extra notes added at the bottom of the page are important, so I'm pasting them here too:
Extra Notes:
*Be sure to bring a sturdy music stand. As not everyone has a sturdy stand, if you have more than one STURDY music stand, bring those too.
*If you have a battery powered LED book light or reading light, you may find it useful during rehearsal.
*Bring a (nonperishable) snack to share for Saturday snack time (4pm) to give us plenty of energy to CLEAN! haha!
We will collect them when you arrive Friday so we can remember to serve SNACKs when it's TIME. :)
​Thanks, everyone! If I do not have your permission slip yet, I have sent a separate text message. Please make sure you bring that!

Also, if you are one of the very few who have not turned in the Acceptance, Release and Payment form, I'll need that too!...

Thanks!

Have a great week, and come prepared for a great time Friday and Saturday​!
Julie

Rehearsal This Saturday (YES!), Additional Chaperons Needed and Retreat Info

Greetings!

I want people to actually read this email, so I'm trying to keep it uncomplicated (read short and sweet!).

1. I am looking for two more male chaperons to sleep in a newly-added third boys' cabin. You would not have to stay the whole time. 8:30 pm to 7:30 am is fine. Please contact me asap if interested. 

2. Rides to and from the retreat (next week, Oct 23-24) are up to you. If you need ideas of who to carpool with, please contact me. I'll be happy to help people connect in this way.

3. The retreat details and location are on the handouts from auditions (I have attached it as well.) Here is a link to the google map for the camp.

4. There is rehearsal this Saturday! If you are in town, please attend. :)

​Wonderful! Thanks!

Music, Concertos, Recital, Retreat

Greetings!

Music
Tomorrow at rehearsal we will be handing out two new pieces and putting one on the "long term work" list. We will be performing Scheherazade on the April concert, next spring, in its entirety. That is the goal. This is a phenomenal piece of music, and we know we are capable of it, but realize the need for more time to really make it amazing.

For the November concert our pieces will be as follows (drum roll please)
William Tell Overture, Rossini
Flute Concerto in D, first movement, Mozart (Allison Francis, soloist)
Pirates of the Caribbean
Sleigh Ride, Leroy Anderson

We will keep Scheherazade and work on it throughout the year. 

Concerto Soloists
Also, congratulations to our other concerto soloists this year who will be
MaKenzie Harris, Gliere Horn Concerto, Feb 20
Megan Brasher, Barber Violin Concerto, April 28

Recital Night
The other four musicians who participated in concerto auditions will be featured performers on our Recital Night which is set for January 30 in the Brigham City Tabernacle. The remainder of the program is open to solo and small groups of students from both orchestras. Sign ups will begin soon! 

Retreat
One note about the retreat: If you are still on the "maybe" list, please realize that this is rehearsal that weekend (actually, it's 3 rehearsals!), and if you don't have another reason to not participate, please make the effort to attend. We do have fun, we do play games, have skits, and be crazy, but we need you at rehearsal too! 

We have people that are coming to just part of it, or we have had people not spend the night and just come up Friday night and then again on Saturday (and I can let you know what the costs are for partial participation... just ask), but it's really best to attend the whole thing!

I don't know for sure how many chaperons I need until I have a specific commitment, one way or the other, from each of you.

Thanks for everything, especially your support and commitment!

Don't forget to use the the Attendance Form if you need to arrive late, leave early, or be absent. It's working very nicely. Thank you to those who have used it!

Volunteer Form

Greetings!

Thanks to everyone who signed up at the parent meeting to volunteer! I was so overwhelmed by the number of people willing to help.

I have discovered that I need a more specific list of volunteers, and have created this form in hopes that it will help us track them. This is for NUYCO and NUYS, and will help us know who to call on throughout the year. 

Thank you so much for participating! It should be quick, easy and harmless, and would be most amazing if I had a response from every family by the end of today. Well, not really. How about Friday? :)

Blessings,
Julie Gardner

Here is another link for the volunteer form: http://goo.gl/forms/0ykeSNrpG4

PS Thanks to everyone participating in the Attendance Form method of notifying me of rehearsals you can't attend, or if you will be late or leave early. If you want to try it (and you know you do), here is the link. :) So cool for all of us!

Come Play With Us!



NUYS Auditions and Stuff!

Greetings, Wonderful People!


The next season is coming ​together nicely.  We are so excited to see everyone again. Much behind-the-scenes work has been ​done this summer.  We have new timpani headsa new piccolomusic stand carts at the school, and a whole bunch of other great ​happenings, including grants written to keep us going for another year​.


​​IMPORTANT QUESTION before we get started:

Chamber Orchestra:
We are studying the possibility of moving Chamber Orchestra from Tuesdays 4-5:30 to Saturdays so they rehearse during the same time as Youth Symphony. We need your feedback! Do you have younger siblings or friends that would love to join the Chamber Orchestra but couldn't participate on Tuesdays? Please take a brief moment to email us so we know your comments, suggestions, and opinions.​ A reply to this email is great!


​​Okay, now for the real stuff:

Actions Requested:
Fill out the Online Participant Form and sign up for an Audition Time (link provided​after submitting the participant form). Please do this even if you did it last year!

The NUYS Auditions page​ also​ has some great ​info which might help if you have questions.

Things you need to Know:
Concerto Auditions:

​​
Concerto auditions are maxed out at the limit of 8 people auditioning.
​ ​
Those auditioning with a concerto do not need to audition on regular audition day (unless they are playing a different instrument for their concerto).

​(​If you are signed up for concerto auditions​ but do not receive a separate email from me ​in the next 24 hours, please contact me asap.)​

Regular Auditions:
September 19, 8 am to 1 pm. Please fill out the participant form -- you will receive the link ​for audition ​sign ups at the end of the participant form.

​When you sign up, please notice that your time slot is only five minutes. If we make the slots longer we'll be auditioning until the cows come home!

Scales: 
One way to speed up auditions is to practice up your scales -- they should be at least MM=92 for each note, or faster. Your two scales should take less than ​one minute​ (80 notes at MM=92 comes out at roughly 49 seconds)​, and your solo should be timed at 1 minute​Mr Dunn may stop you part way through your solo​. The sight reading is last, and we will provide an appropriate length excerpt so it's quick. I'd love to be able to say that we were timely with auditions this year!

String players: If you need help with fingerings for your scales, please ask. 
We can put you in touch with a helper​. That third octave is a lot easier if you have a fingering that you use every time​, like a patternYou'd be surprised how many great scale playing videos there are on Youtube. For instance, check out this one.​

​I like where he put the camera! So helpful. I will be putting up a scale page on the website when I get the chance, but don't wait for me. Do your own research. 

Parent Meeting:
​The parent meeting is set for the same day as the first rehearsal, September 26, 11:15 am to noon. Plan to attend -- youth and parents are all welcome -- and plan to pay your membership fee that day.​ Fees are the same as last year. More info on the Tuition page.​ 

Rehearsals for 
the​ first concert:
Rehearsals will run 8:30 to 11:00 am,​ each​ Saturday​:​
Sept 26, Oct 3, 10, 17, Retreat Oct 23-24, Oct 31, Nov 7, 14, with the concert on the 21st.​ A complete calendar for the year will be included in your welcome packet to be handed out at auditions, and there is always an up-to-date calendar online. ​

RETREAT!!!!
October 23-24​, at Camp UTABA in Liberty, Utah​. THIS IS A NATIONAL ACT TEST DAY. Take the test in September or December so you can be at the retreat! It's awesome!
​ ​
If you are already signed up for the October​ ACT, there is a way to change your test date if you do it by a deadline and pay a fee.

​Paperwork for the retreat will also be in the welcome packet handed out at auditions.​


​Save the Date for the first concert:
November 21, Rehearsal 11 am, Concert 3 pm. Venue and other details to follow.



​Please contact me with questions! If you have a question, someone else might be thinking the same thing, so you may as well ask. :)



Have a lovely rest-of-summer. 

Julie Gardner

Managing Director, NUYS
