I was very happy with the use of our May rehearsals last year, so I will be using our time the same way again this year. That is to say, we’ll be focusing on our more complex music exclusively.
I hope to see you all on May 18!
Sincerely,
Elizabeth

It is nice to see Millennium coming back for another summer.
Returnee members! Make note that the Saturday rehearsals are *not* at our regular location from years gone by. This year, we are on Osborne Street.
