READ CAREFULLY
To present our concerts in the artistic and beautiful manner and in keeping with the standards established by you and by previous choirs, all music must be carefully learned and memorized by every choir member. The music cannot be learned and memorized ONLY in the rehearsal times. Those of you who have a conflict in schedule must work on the music which others are working on in regular rehearsals. Practice the music individually and in small groups. -- ALL must hold rigidly, devotedly, faithfully and enthusiastically to the memory schedule. We have a big job ahead, but I am confident we can reach our ambitions. --Please be alerted to "music-in-the-round" sessions. Also small "trial" groups will be called in soon.
