We are rehearsing May repertoire on Monday. Please see the posted rehearsal plan.

I closed the Repertoire Bracket Project nomination form. Thanks to everyone to submitted one or more works, and especially to those who pitched their favorites last Monday. There were a total of 60 nominations, resulting in 51 unique nominations.

First seed with 3 nods
Suite of Old American Dances by Robert Russell Bennett

Tie for second seed with 2 nods each:
. . . and the mountains rising nowhere by Joseph Schwanter
A Child’s Garden of Dreams, by David Maslanka
Canzona, by Peter Mennin
Sound and Smoke, by Viet Cuong
Symphony in Bb, by Paul Hindemith
Symphony No. 6, by Vincent Persichetti
Variants on a Medieval Tune, by Norman Dello Joio

The remaining works received one nomination each.

I’ll assemble the bracket this week, with links to recordings and notes from the nominations, and then we’ll start to vote!

See you Monday!
