Weekly Announcements for Sunday, November 1
ALL SINGERS AND PARENTS SHOULD READ THESE!
Rehearsal Plan: Because of missed rehearsals, we are starting to feel the crunch of time! We need to make up for lost time, and here are two possibilities:
Option 1 (preferred): Hold rehearsal on November 29 (Thanksgiving Sunday). This will be the chosen option unless there are significant absences.
Option 2: Begin rehearsals at 6:00 PM on Nov. 8, 15 and Dec. 6 and run rehearsal from 2:00 to 4:30 PM on Nov. 22.
Please list your availability for the November 29 at the bottom of the announcement sheet and turn it in tonight, or email director@youthchorale.org with your response.
Google Group: We are looking to add YCCM singers and families to a Google group. Currently we use a service for which we pay a nominal fee. This service reports that only 50% of emails are being read. You will likely receive an email in the next day or so inviting you to join the group. If you don’t receive an invite, please visit http://groups.google.com/group/yccmupdate/ and click on “join group” on the right side.
YCCM facebook group: Your feedback is desired! Most of you are members of the YCCM facebook group “YCCM Singers – Official Group.” Posted as a discussion item is a Barnum piece that we are considering adding to our February concert. Please listen to the link and thoughtfully respond on the discussion. Also, feel free to post youtube links of other pieces for consideration. While artistic decisions will not be decided on popular opinion, it will be an interesting project to hear your responses and suggestions for music.
November 22 Reminder: Remember that rehearsal on November 22 will be at 2:00 PM.
Website: Feel free to utilize the members section of the website. You will find forms, schedules, and any crucial information in that section. The username is “member” and the password “sing2009.”
ON THE WEBSITE YOU WILL FIND A RECORDING OF NOEL AYISYEN! Please utilize it for practice.
Conflict Catcher: If you haven’t filled out and turned in a Conflict catcher, please turn one in as soon as possible.
