[RC] 02 October 2019

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

 

Hello Rideau Cadences,

March forward (October forward?) to week Four!  We will look into the distinct rhythms of Reboot this week as well as to bring Scarborough Fair together.  Next week, it would be great to interact with the cut time sections of Frozen and see if we can run it.

 

  1. General

-TENOR/TRB/BARH/EUPH in staff room with Colin this week.

-OCDSB schools are not affected by support staff striking.  Carrying on!

 

-Unless you are having a stage sectional, please put your chairs away at the end of the first half.

-The warmup/chorale book we are using is: Sound Innovations Intermediate Concert Band (green book)
