Hi everyone! Look below to see the rehearsal review for your orchestra.
Middle School Orchestra
- The Abandoned Funhouse — We were able to play through this whole thing this week, and I am really proud of you guys! It is not easy to play a different part than everybody else. We will keep running through it so that you all feel comfortable with how your part fits in with the others — you can also practice with the practice videos to help with this.
- Royal Promenade — This is going great! We had a few mixups, but we basically have this one down. Again, practicing with the practice videos will help for this one so that you will know how it sounds with all of the parts.
- Seven Nation Army — You all did a really great job with speeding this up this week. Way to go! We now need to get used to the chorus and the transitions in and out of the chorus.
Elementary Orchestra
- The Salamander Samba — We went through this, but I didn’t realize that I hadn’t reviewed the violins’ part at C with you! I will make sure to get a powerpoint going and then it will make a lot more sense.
- Royal Promenade — We got everyone who missed last week’s rehearsal on the same page, and this is sounding great! We also reviewed the beginning. You should be able to play from the beginning until measure 21. We will learn the middle section at our next rehearsal.
- On a Swing — We played through this and it’s sounding great! We just have to be sure to remember the rests near the end so no one is playing when they shouldn’t.
