Rehearsal Blog Update 03/21/2014

Dear Intermediate Singers and Families,

Thank you for a focused and productive rehearsal this week! Important reminder for next week’s rehearsal: Singers, please bring a hat with you to rehearsal next week, as we are learning choreography for "Hats". The hat must be easily put on and taken off with just one hand, and made out of stiff enough material that it holds its form. (A wool winter hat or tilley hat, for example, would NOT work.) Ideal hats are costume or real bowlers, fedoras, boaters, top hats, cowboy hats, sombreros, straw hats, or halloween hats like a hard hat, sailor cap, police cap, etc.

If you don’t own any hats like the ones described above, try Diddams at 1952 W El Camino Real, Mountain View. I bought a perfect black hat there the other day for under $3!

Musicianship

Intermediate A AND Intermediate Honor, you’re finishing up to page 34 for next week. Please also ensure that you have corrected all mistakes made on previous assignments. Books must be complete - with all mistakes corrected and all CD questions answered - by the first week of May, so please be sure to stay on top of your work from now until the end of the term!

Intermediate Honor, in addition to your workbook homework above, you are also working on your chromatic scales (last page of skills challenge booklet). Remember to practice them with a piano, returning to C after each new note.


Happy Practicing!
