Post date: Dec 05, 2018 4:5:35 PM
Good afternoon students & parents!
Fantastic to see you students yesterday. Your good vocal habits are beginning to pay off and you’re performing with expression. The remaining tips I have for you are:
Exaggerate your facial expressions & loosen up... even more!And then some!
Thursday Afternoon @ 2:40, stun the 5th graders by loudly bursting in during “Sw Story”!
Friday morning, arrive having spoken & sung already. This is truly a make or break deal!
Stay healthy. Drink water. Drink more. Keep up on your school work. Get enough sleep.
FRIDAY MORNING (7:15) 7:30 AM BEFORE SCHOOL ON THE RISERS!
You need to come warmed up, and PUT EVERYTHING AWAY IN YOUR LOCKERS FIRST! Then hustle downstairs. We will be wearing regular school clothes for the assembly. If you’d like to add scarves, hats, mittens- totally ok! We’ll have very little time to address any last minute changes & details. I beg you not to be late Friday. This is our ONE rehearsal with Chorale for the opening. Again, please arrive early to put backpack & coats in lockers BEFORE reporting to the auditorium by 7:30. The all-school assembly starts at 8:30am sharp. Maybe even a tad earlier. Here is the full morning schedule:
7:15-7:25 Arrival/ everything to lockers
7:30 SOUND CHECK ON RISERS
8:05 Bathroom & return to side hall
8:15 Start positions. Doors open.
8:30-9:15ish ASSEMBLY
IMPORTANT ASSEMBLY INFO FOR STUDENTS: You open, exit to hall & help Chorale boys. In the morning, you will only have 1 1/2 minutes to get them back on stage!!!! Then snag your phones, line in rows, peel off for your return AS SOON AS you hear applause for “Christmas Melody”! You will sing ONLY Phone song in morning, then exit back out the side aisles FAST, leaving the auditorium. You have 3 songs to get in your “Sweetest Story/ Hallelujah Chorus” lines to return. We will not be doing Hall Chorus in the morning.
FRIDAY EVENING 6:30pm ARRIVAL DETAILS
6:30PM ENSEMBLE WARM UP/ Praise & Prayer in MUSIC ROOM
Auditorium Doors open (Beck, Andre, Eli- pass out programs pls)
7:00PM CONCERT Same flow as the assembly but add back Manger & Hall Ch.
We are in need of one person to collect chair signs and extra programs and return to Music Room.
