Happy Thanksgiving to you, your families, and your friends! We are lucky to enjoy so many gifts, and it’s good to stop and take stock of how lucky we all are. I am particularly grateful for all of you, for your musicianship, and for your dedication to this ensemble.

Next Monday we’re rehearsing Svanhoe, Gershwin, and Saucedo. I received a reply from Erika Svahoe concerning the questions I posed concerning her suite, and rehearsed with Josh Pierce, our Gershwin pianist, on Tuesday. This is going to be a great program!

Enjoy the holiday, and I’ll see you next Monday!
