Hi Folks!
Well, folks, we have 2 more rehearsals before our first performance of the year! I think we’re in very good shape!
I’m sorry for the delay in getting this sent out. I hope to do better this week.
LOCATION CHANGE!!!!
Bourkevale is unavailable to us this week, so please do not report there for rehearsal! Instead, we will be practising at the St James Legion – 1755 Portage Ave – 7-9 pm.
As always, I’ll be there at 6:30 pm if anyone wants some assistance with brass technique OR general practise techniques.
Uniforms
The new Millennium Band shirts come to every rehearsal and are available for $25. It is not mandatory, but if you’re interested, we have them available. (Our uniforms are black bottoms, and in order of preference: forest green tops, black tops).
I think that’s it for news for now!
I’ll be drawing our rehearsal from the following pieces:
- Scales will be a repeat of last week: Db, B, Bb (concert pitch)
- 51 – Entrance of the Gladiators
- 54 – The Drunken Sailor
- 57 – Wade in the Water
- 63 – Hallelujah
- 68 – Jazz Chaconne
- 70 – The Maple Leaf Forever
- 76 – Sweet Caroline
- 77- Sesame Street Celebration
- 78 – Baba Yetu

See you on Thursday!
Elizabeth.
