It’s hard to believe that our Winter Concert is two weeks from tonight. All this will pull together very quickly when our soloists, guest conductor, and off-stage band members all arrive next Monday for rehearsal and Wednesday for dress rehearsal. Please arrive in plenty of time to park (remember we can use the bank parking lot!), talk with friends, help set up, and warm up carefully, so we can hit the ground running at 7:30 sharp. Monday’s rehearsal order is posted; I’ve now assigned time slots for each section of rehearsal.
I neglected to share this page from Westchester Magazine, which Tim Allport gave to me 2 weeks ago. Their Best Bets section also promotes the best food and events the county has to offer. In November, the first page of this section featured WSW, to promote the Fall Concert, along with Conan and Puddles the Clown. Perhaps the editors were sending me a subtle personal message?
Lastly, we received this invitation from Sheila Murphy, Director of Philanthropy at TMH, to promote a special Valentine’s Day concert at TMH on February 14:
Dear Curt,
On behalf of The Music Hall, I would like to invite you and members of WSW to join us this Valentine’s Day at 8pm for a very special classical concert event by celebrated Carnegie Hall pianist Katya Grineva. Ms. Grineva has the special distinction of performing more times at Carnegie Hall than any other solo female pianist and for one night she will be at The Music Hall to play our amazing new Steinway Model D Concert Grand Piano with her unique style and passion.
The performance will include the option of a post-show VIP reception on the mezzanine with a Champagne toast, chocolate & desserts and an opportunity to meet Ms. Grineva.
If you could share this event with your WSW members, we would be grateful. This is going to be a memorable evening of classical favorites at The Music Hall. Thank you!
Kind Regards,Sheila

See you all Monday night. Don’t forget the bank parking lot is open!
