Weekly Rehearsal AND Party! - NUYCO

Hello families!

REHEARSAL

Yes, rehearsal at 4:30 on Thursday. AND we're having a Halloween party! Everyone is welcome to wear their costumes as long as they don't interfere with playing instruments. :) We will play a game or two and eat some non-perishable, unopened food leftover from Retreat. You are welcome to bring food but we definitely don't need more! Haha!

We will have sectionals on Thursday. This means that if you/your NUYCO member will be gone, I *need* to know. Keep reading for sectional-specific practice spots!

Violin 1 - Waltz: transitions between main sections. Straus: tempo changes and balance (i.e., dynamics).

Violin 2 - Strauss: m. 155-end (bowings, ritardandos). Corelli: transition from adagio to allegro. Brazilian: transition to the coda. Waltz: ritardandos.

Viola - Brazilian: m. 40 and 52 chromatics. Corelli: m. 8 rhythm. Strauss: m. 2-11. Waltz: chords at the very end.

Cello - Waltz: transitions between main sections. Straus: tempo changes and balance (i.e., dynamics).

Bass - Waltz: transitions between main sections. Straus: tempo changes and balance (i.e., dynamics).

CONCERT DETAILS

Ogden High School, November 12, starts at 7 pm

...... but ......

NUYCO sound check starts at 5:40 sharp, which means every NUYCO member needs to be in OHS, ready to go, instrument out and warmed up, by 5:30. Please arrive at 5:15.

Also, all members of all the groups (NUYS, NUYCO, NUYPS, and NUYWE) are expected to stay for the entire concert. It is good etiquette and important for all members to support all members.

See you on Thursday!

All Things NUYCO Retreat

Hello Families! Please read all of the following information about retreat!

Payment - you have two options for Retreat payments: pay online (linked, scroll down to the payment widget thing) or hand me the money on Friday. $35 for NUYCO members, $15 for chaperone (if sharing our food).

Schedule - drop off on Friday, October 7 at 5 pm; pick up on Saturday, October 8 at 4 pm

Directions to Camp Earley - it is a dirt road with pot holes. Drive carefully. :)

Packing List - use your common sense, haha. Normal camping/overnighter supplies plus close-toed shoes and mosquito spray. There are showers at the camp BUT we will not be using them! Modest pajamas are a MUST - we will all be sleeping in one room. Nothing tight, see-through, or otherwise inappropriate.

Check In and Out - there will be an adult posted by the lodge; all NUYCO members will be checked in and out by a parent. I want to know exactly who I have under my supervision! Please do not rush out of the camp, especially since we have so many new members who haven't been to the camp before. Be sure you talk to the Check In/Out adult before leaving.

Help with food - if you didn't sign up at the Parent Meeting and would like to contribute a dessert, salad, or snack, sign up on the doc!

Chaperone - if you didn't sign up to chaperone and would like to, we would LOVE to have you! Chaperones pay $15 for food, unless you want to bring your own meals and then you can come for free! Let me know if you're interested.

Carpool - I know Camp Earley is quite a drive for some of you. If you are interested in a carpool, let me know and I will set one up!
