With only two weeks to go until our 25th anniversary, we’re coming down to the wire. Check the revised rehearsal schedule for tomorrow night. Tom McCauley is coming to conduct the LoPresti. We will also be having our last rehearsal on the Ticheli until we meet with Mallory Thompson on May 31.

I will be bringing hard copies of the personnel list for the program to pass out among the sections. Please check the listing and initial by your name to approve, or add/edit any missing or incomplete information.

See you tomorrow night!

Jongho Lee, my NVOT baritone sax player who attended our rehearsal on Monday, stayed until the end of the rehearsal with tenor sax player, Jake Hess. They sat in the front of the balcony, and Jongho sketched throughout the remainder of rehearsal. He was incredibly inspired by what he heard. This is the result, and I think it’s wonderful. Click on the sketch to see a larger view.

We will have cards to distribute tonight to advertise the 25th Anniversary Gala concert. Thanks go to Matt Kowalski for spearheading this project.

I have 50 hard copies of the flyer for those interested. You can also download the flyer for distribution:

• Print version (for printing nice clear copies)
• Web version (for emailing, posting, Facebook, Twitter, etc.)
