Hi Folks!
Once again, our efforts at the performance last night were outstanding. I am SO proud of you all! The audience was VERY engaged with us! What a way to close out our performances for the season!
Concordia Village advised that someone left behind a music stand last evening. If this is you, please contact info@mbmillenniumband.com and we’ll work out arrangements. (We also still have an alto sax stand that someone left at a rehearsal. Please contact us at the above address and we’ll get that sorted, too).
We have a confirmed gig booked for 2025!! Mark your calendars: August 9, 2025 at 1:30 pm, we are slated to perform at Holy Family Home. Suffice it to say, our gig last Saturday went over rather well! (I have not yet added this to the website but I will create next season’s pages before too long).
Given that our performances for the summer are finished, our focus will now shift to planning for next season. (That means sight-reading).
This week (Aug 22) is going to be my choice, but I thought I’d leave Aug 29’s selections open to you. Feel free to take a look at our library listing (http://www.mbmillenniumband.com/index.php/members/library/) and email the info@mbmillenniumband.com no later than August 22 with your requests. (They can be pieces already in our binders or from the listing). I can’t promise that we’ll look at everything, but we’ll do our best to get in as many as possible.
For those who want to focus their practise, I do plan to work on the following pieces this week, in addition to sight-reading:
- 21 – A Disney Spectacular
- 60 – Dragonheart
And, in closing, here’s a little dose of homour:
Have a safe and happy week! I hope to see most of you on Thursday!
Sincerely,
Elizabeth.
