Orders will be taken in the lobby at the concert.

Music Info

Just another reminder: After the concert, the ONLY music that will be collected is the Gliere.

Rental Situation - This rental music and must be mailed back to New York before I go to Pittsburgh on Monday. I do not have time to chase music after the concert, so let's set a record and turn it ALL in right after the concert!

Hand the Gliere to your section leader and leave EVERYTHING ELSE in your folder and take it home.

Video Recording

Bruce Smith will be recording this concert; his fee is $11 per DVD.
Orders can be placed in the lobby at the concert.

Upcoming Stuff:

Abravanel Hall Youth Symphony Festival
March 14, 2016

This is a school day. You will need to get excused from your classes.

We perform in the afternoon session which runs 1:30 to 4:30.

There will be a bus, and we will need help with large instrument transportation. We will probably schedule it to arrive early enough to "do lunch" at City Creek.

The schedule will be made available soon. Please send me a reply if you are wanting to chaperon or help with transportation.

Gala Dinner Info

April 9, 2016

The Gala Fundraising Dinner and Silent Auction is set for April 9th at 6:00 pm at the Brigham City Community Center, 34 N 300 W, Brigham City.

Basket Themes -- The two orchestras will be divided into 9 groups that will donate items for theme baskets for the silent auction. We will do the drawing for basket assignments Feb 27, the first week after the concert.

Silent Auction Donations Contest -- Everyone who brings in items for the Silent Auction will be entered into a contest for a $100 Visa Gift Card. Each Auction Item equals one entry into the contest. This is being sponsored by Aaron Gardner.

Ticket Sales Contest -- The top seller from each orchestra will receive a $25 prize.
