Agenda for Abravanel Hall -- And Turning In Music

I failed to tell you something important!!! 

Yesterday I needed to announce that ALL music folders will be collected after tomorrow's performance. If you do not use your folder on stage, you may hand it to me before going to the green room. Having all the music tomorrow will help me so much! Please be sure to bring your folders. If you have other music (not NUYS) in your folders, take it out of the folder tonight!

And here is the rest of the stuff, which is just repetition (you should already know this) but it has been combined between both hand-outs.

Ø  10.45 a.m. Begin loading bus @ Perry Walmart 1200 South Commerce Way; Use North East corner area of the parking lot.
There will be a vehicle there to load Basses and Cellos. This will give plenty of space for people on the bus. (Thanks, Valerie Neslen, for volunteering)

Ø  11:00 a.m. Leave Perry Walmart

Ø  11:15-11:20 a.m. Pick up students in Farr West at the
Park & Ride (@ 1850 W & 2700 N, across from Maverik)

Ø  11:30-11:35 a.m. Pick up students in Riverdale at the Park & Ride on the east side of the freeway north of 5600 S; official address, 5234 S Freeway Park Road, Roy 84405

Ø  12:15 p.m. Arrive to Abravanel Hall. (The morning session does not end until 12:30, so we cannot bring instruments in to Abravanel Hall yet. Carry small instruments with you to the mall; the vehicle with the large instruments will meet us at Abravanel Hall after we eat). We will go to the food court at City Creek. Either bring a lunch, or some money for food.
No wandering off; stay in the food court!


Be back to Abravanel Hall by 1:15 p.m. Our NUYS assigned seating is in rows 17 and 19; place instruments in seats in front of you, rows 16 and 18. Large Instrument cases go in the back, in row 34. Parents: rows are 28-30 are for spectators.

Ø  1:30 p.m. American Heritage Lyceum Philharmonic (with Megan Brasher!)

Ø  2:00 p.m. Davis Youth Symphony
(This is when we warm up in the Green Room.)

Ø  2:30 p.m. Northern Utah Youth Symphony performance

Ø  3:00 p.m. Utah Youth Philharmonic
(This is when we have our group picture on the grand staircase.)
Bring $15 check or cash if you want to order an 8x10 picture. Make checks payable to Patrick Webster.

Ø  3:30 p.m. Utah Youth Symphony

Ø  4:00 p.m. Young Artist Chamber Players

Ø  4:30 p.m. Load the bus. Leave Salt Lake by 4:45 p.m.

Ø  5:30 p.m. Arrive at Riverdale Park & Ride

Ø  5:45 p.m. Arrive at Farr West Park & Ride

Ø  6:00 p.m. Arrive at Walmart

v  These times will depend on traffic and unforeseeable events, so we'll need to be flexible. Parents, please arrive for pick-up a few minutes early just in case, or keep in touch via cell phone.


Additional Notes:

Your job is to be the best audience you can be for the other orchestras. Stay in the auditorium and listen to the performances. No chatting. No electronic gadgets, please. Hear something you like? Write it down! Maybe we can play it sometime! We have been included with the very best youth orchestras in the state, because, well, look at us! I'm sure you will enjoy their music!

 

All performances are recorded. You want your recording to be great! Don't do anything that will affect the other recordings.

 

Clothing: Please be sure to wear the "uniform" of the orchestra. This includes a black suit coat, white shirt, and BLACK BOW TIE! Yes, men, I'm talking to you! :)

See you all tomorrow!
