Juries
Hi folks,
Jury sign-up sheets have been posted on my door. Remember, the sooner you sign up, the more likely you are to get the time you want! Double check your final exam schedule before signing up, so that you don't have to change anything later.
Thanks.

OPERA: here we go!
Folks,
We agreed to a 9am rehearsal
tomorrow, Saturday. Please make every effort to be there. I would love to be
done by 11am. Let's work efficiently to make that happen. Be on time and warmed
up.
TUESDAY is not only our first
dress rehearsal, it is also the day in-action photos will be taken. Please be in costume,
in makeup, ready to go by 6pm. I have quite a bit of makeup and white hairspray
for the "old folks," so no need to buy that if you don't wish. Though
I will bring alcohol to clean things so you can share if needed, I do recommend
having your own face makeup for sanitary reasons. Most cost-effective way to do
this: go to Sephora and ask for a color-matching and one or two samples to try.
They will be free. There is a shop at the Summit and anther in JCPenney at the
Fultondale Target shopping center.
Tech week has been
posted for months, so you know the drill. Here are the times again:
Orchestra-only rehearsal on Monday, April 8 (7-9pm). This is not required, but might be very helpful if you’d like to hear the orchestra parts before you sing with them. Please come if you can.
Piano dress April 9 (6-9 pm: 5pm call for costumes and makeup)
Orchestra dress rehearsal on April 10 (6-9pm: 5pm call for costumes and makeup)
Performances: April 11 and 13th (BOTH at 7pm: this is a time change you all agreed to! Make a note of it). 6pm call for costumes and makeup. Come earlier if you need the time to warm up, etc.
As always, the key to
this week is pacing yourselves and budgeting your energy. Do what you must to
take care of yourself. Hydration, good nutrition, and adequate sleep are of
paramount importance this week. It might feel like babying yourself, but it is
VITAL.
Thanks, and see you
tomorrow.

Voice Studio Recital groups posted
The groups for the voice
recitals are posted on my door. Please double check that nothing was inadvertently
omitted. Cut and
paste/copy and paste sometimes yields weird mistakes!
If you would initial next your name, that would be terrific. Email me if there are any problems.
Thanks.
