Schedule
We will be meeting regularly on
Tuesday nights at 7:45 PM at
my place
.
I expect our Spring schedule to be similar to what it’s been the last
few years, so we spend March and April working on music for the Walk
for Hunger, which this year is on May 5. So for the next few weeks,
we’ll be doing some trying out of pieces that might be fun to do at
the Walk. Come with your ideas.
I will need to know by the March 5 rehearsal who is planning to play
the Walk for Hunger. As for the last couple of years, only the last two
rehearsals before the walk are compulsory, but you will need to come
to enough of the other rehearsals in March and April to learn the
music.
The Secretary of State of Massachusetts has thrown a monkey-wrench
into our normal schedule, and scheduled an election for April 30,
which is the Tuesday before the Walk for Hunger. So we may have to
schedule that rehearsal for some other time, or possibly just start it
a bit later than usual.
When we know our program and personnel for the Walk, we may also want
to discuss performing it in some informal venue.
