<p class=MsoNormal>HI Everyone,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>First, my apologies to those also in concert band that have
already received this notice.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>This year, in addition to our concert band, jazz band, and
multiple ensembles, we are trying to start an orchestra. We will have our first
meeting tonight, Tuesday, September 15<sup>th</sup>, starting at 6pm in the
Music Room. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>If you are interested in the orchestra and available on
Tuesday evenings, we welcome you to come out. Please note that the orchestra
and jazz band rehearsals will not conflict, so you can be in both if your time
allows. Also, the orchestra will not perform this semester, but will perform
next semester at the end of February, so there won’t be a crunch time
learning music in November/December for two groups. We do not want this
addition of an orchestra to over-extend the schedules or the student musicians
or make them choose one group of the other. We hope this will be an extension
of musical experiences that we offer, and those interested can participate.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Any questions, let me know. Also, if you are interested but
for some reason you cannot attend tonight’s rehearsal, then let me know.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>THANKS!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>-Dave<o:p></o:p></p>
