Remaining rehearsals, Master Class, and area concerts

Rehearsal Monday

And just that quickly, 2017 is almost gone. We have two more rehearsals left, and we need to make the most of both. I appreciate your focused presence during these Husa rehearsals. I recognize it’s tough to concentrate. So thank you once again for taking this on. I’ve detailed the rehearsal plan for Monday, 7:30 pm at TMH.

Trumpet Master Class – January 15

We can now confirm that our February trumpet soloist, Don Batchelder, principal trumpet with the New York City Opera Orchestra, will present a trumpet master class on Monday, January 15 (MLK Day), from 3:00-5:30 pm on the stage at TMH. Trumpet players are encouraged to attend. We need a couple players to play some solo or excerpt rep, so please consider playing! He is also willing to do some sectional work with the entire section on our current repertoire. The class is open to everyone to listen and observe so please consider attending. I will have more details as we move into the New Year.
