Good Morning, Hello Everyone:
We gather this evening at St. Mary’s Church, Transit Road, in Swormville at 6:30PM SHARP!!!! . We will be in the gymnasium down the hall from the church proper. DO NOT GO INTO THE CHURCH before the concert please, unless you are on set up crew.
CONCERT DRESS:
Women: black skirt/top, dark panty hose (please NO knee highs), pearl earrings, RED pashminas, hair like you wore it on Wednesday, no do-dah glittery stuff; NOTE: Sitters, you may wear black slacks as you SIT. I found it so much easier for you to sit in slacks rather than skirts. Also, lets all sit up as straight as possible, music up, legs all uncrossed. Let’s be uniform. Except for Alicia Meyers, who has a torn rotator, please keep your music up.
Men: black tux, RED bow-tie, cummerbund, white tux shirt, NO wing tip, a regular collar, black comfortable shoes, black socks.
ALL: NO PERFUME OR FRAGRANCES. Be kind to your fellow riser-mate.
If you sing like you did many times on Wednesday night, observing DYNAMICS, watching me, at least once a piece (just kidding!), being expressive and musical, we should have a heluva concert tonight and Sunday, and next Saturday.
BTW:
- Our dress rehearsal for SSPP in Hamburg next Saturday is on TUESDAY NIGHT. I have had a couple inquiries about this. It’s on the schedule. The church choir rehearses on Wednesday and don’t want to loose that night. TUESDAY NIGHT – DECEMBER 4TH.
- Report time for Sunday is 1:15. We have to be out of the church by 2:00 so that our concert folks can set up. If you can help crew that day, it will be very much appreciated since we need lots of time for processional, etc.
OK: See you tonight in the gymnasium promptly at 6:30 for warm-up and pre-concert notes. I’m PUMPED!!!……….and enormously proud of all of you, especially our volunteers who take on the nasty, involved tasks of tickets, crew, and concert logistics! Thanks.
