HI All,

  Mother Nature willing, we will have regular rehearsals over the next few weeks.  With that, there are a couple special things I would like to do:

     - Canticle III - Howard, SHaron, Wes, Laura, Amy, Nancy, Maureen, Donna - measures 2 and 38

     - Sunrise - Brooke, Laura, Amy, Lola, Piccolo?, Flute 2? - Measures 1-32 and 121-

     - Do Not G0... - Lola, Nancy, Robert, Laura - Measures 161-

     - Night on Bald Mt. - FLutes, CLarinets, Oboes, Bassoons, - Ending

3/28 - I will work with percussion after rehearsal till 10:00

4/4 - We will run the full concert.

  Keep practicing and I'll see you all on Tuesday.

14 things to NEVER say to your band director:

1. Are we playing today?
2. But it’s easier for me to finger it this way.
3. We had a concert last night?
4. My private lesson teacher said that’s wrong.
5. Can I go make up a math test during band class today?
6. I do better when I don’t use a metronome.
7. I only want to be in band if I can play drums.
8. I can’t play flute today – I hurt my ankle.
9. I forgot my instrument. Again.
10. I have a pencil. It just doesn’t have any lead.
11. Wait. I have to take my horn home? Every day?
12. It sounds better when I play it with the whole band.
13. I know it’s chipped and moldy, but this is the only reed I have.
14. Do we need our instrument for the concert tonight?
