Is it February yet!?

So running a bit behind on the newsletter this month, but I wanted to be sure to get the recital info out to you with all of the details.

CHRISTMAS RECITAL in February
Our Christmas New Year’s Valentine’s Day Ensemble Recital is set for 3:00 on Sunday, Feb. 27th in the Chapel at Schreiner. We’re going to keep it simple and fun. It’s just a chance to perform in our ensemble groups for family and friends. We won’t have a reception this time—but you know at this point next Christmas isn’t that far away. : )

 

The chapel is located in the Campus Ministry Center (#18 on the map), which is just a stone’s throw (if you have a good arm) from my teaching studio at the Rock House (#13 on the map). Parking is in Lot C the big lot right behind the studio.

 

Our dress rehearsal will be from 10:00 to 11:30 on Saturday, Feb. 26th in the chapel. For the dress rehearsal we will begin with the finale piece “Auld Lang Syne” and run the program—basically from beginner to advanced. Students are free to leave once their piece has been performed for the rehearsal.
 

ENSEMBLE REHEARSALS & Make up Lessons
Next week we will have separate ensemble rehearsals instead of our usual lesson times. Students who are not performing in the recital will have regular lessons and I will also be doing make up lessons.

Calendar Adjustments
Our Solo Recital in May is planned as usual, however I have had to make a change in the date because of a conflict.  However this allows us a chance for an extra master class week where we can work on solo performance.  The Spring Solo Recital will be Sunday, May 22nd.  See the calendar below for all of the changes.
