EE: 15 Dec Show Info

Your contribution to the band is both welcome and appreciated, and your best is good enough.

 

Hello Elgin Encores,

It’s nearly Showtime!  Thank you all so much for a lovely term.  It was great to have many of you again and to get to know new members as well.  You’re sounding fantastic and it’s going to be a stellar show.

Also a huge thank you to our band rep and oboe/English horn extraordinaire – Jackie – who has spent countless hours helping the band behind the scenes and juggling all the bookings and rebookings.

Let’s wow the crowd with the result of our teamwork!
