Pre-Thanksgiving rehearsal

Our next rehearsal is tomorrow night, our last before Thanksgiving. See the rehearsal plan here.

TMH is not available on Monday, December 12 (our last rehearsal before the holiday break). We’re hoping that White Plains HS will be confirmed. Stay tuned.

There is no rehearsal on December 19 or 26. Our next rehearsal after New Year’s Day will be January 2, 2023 at TMH.

Watch the Fall Concert broadcast tonight at 8 pm EST!

If your schedule allows, I hope you will watch the broadcast of last Sunday’s concert tonight at 8:00 pm on our ensemble website. It will then be archived on our WSW YouTube channel for viewing anytime.
If you do watch tonight (or later on YouTube), I would appreciate your feedback. Please follow this link or click the graphic below to complete a short feedback form regarding the broadcast. This will help us to plan for the future.
The rehearsal plan for Monday night is posted. On arrival, please be ready to pull ALL of your Fall Concert parts from your folder, and swap them with Nancy for the Winter Concert parts.

Gratitude

It’s hard to find the words to describe how I feel about yesterday. You all performed at a whole new level. There were amazing peak moments in every piece, and you truly connected with the audience. You heard and saw their reactions – this was not a typical band concert!

I’m grateful in specific ways to so many of you — too many to write in this post right now. I have 8 sets of parts to prep for Nancy and 7 scores to prepare (Jessica is conducting on this program), and I need every spare moment of the next six days to get ready. So I’ll share specific thanks at Monday’s rehearsal.

The broadcast is scheduled for this coming Saturday at 8:00 pm EST, and can be found on our ensemble website: www.westchestersymphonicwinds.org. Please spread the word! (After the broadcast, the concert will be permanently archived on our WSW YouTube channel.)

Congratulations on a superb performance. Enjoy the broadcast!

 

Final post for Fall Concert

This is it! We have our final rehearsal on Wednesday at 7:30, dress on Saturday at 9:00 am, and sound check Sunday at 1:00 pm — all at TMH.

We could still use 4-5 more volunteers to help us set up on Wednesday at 5:30 pm, and 4-5 more to stay late on Saturday til about 12:30 pm to tear down. Pizza & soda will be provided both times!

The detailed schedule for all three days this week is posted here. Please review — these are three complex days.

I’m so excited to share this concert with you!
