An announcement...

Our concert is just about two weeks away! Hard to believe, you've all come such a long way and have worked really hard. You should be proud of the work we've done!

Just to clarify - our concert order is as follows:

La dee da dee da entrance piece
Now I walk in beauty
Song of Galilee
Blow the Candles Out
Dide Ta Deo
Praise His Holy Name
Goin to Bethlehem
Too lah play zee oh recessional piece

It should be really great!

Thank you to all our soloist auditionees in the past few days - it was really difficult to choose only three people from all of those who auditioned. I tried to consider ability first and foremost, but when it came down to the wire if two students were of the same ability and in the finalist position for the solos, I went with the student with more seniority, but only if it came down to two who were of the same ability. I hope this makes sense to you :) Please don't be discouraged if you were not selected, you all sounded lovely and I wish I had enough solos for each and every one of you.

So, without further ado, congratulations to the following students!

Blow the Candles Out solists: Tim Marro and Lauren Simano

Goin to Bethlehem descant: Cat Clogston

Fabulous work! Have a great Thanksgiving and be ready to polish up those pieces to perfection when we return to school on Dec. 1st!
