First, thank you to those of you who came out last night to hear and support the 8th grade singers and Ms. Shetler! It was greatly appreciated by all!
Second thank you to those who came early to help with risers today--much appreciated!
Lots of positive takeaways from this morning's rehearsal! It is a tough space to sing in acoustically but you guys are working hard and you're on track. Keep working hard on those tricky harmony sections in Colder Weather and Northern Lights overall focused air and expressive energy. It would be best if we could do it by memory! This will take weekend practice and work. I'm in the process of uploading today's video of colder weather to YouTube to share with you all.
