9-26-14 Last Chance & More details!

Post date: Oct 13, 2014 11:37:7 PM

Good morning 7th & 8th graders and parents-

Thanks to the many of you who have already responded to the Christmas Ensemble opportunity. This email contains some extra details and serves as a final call to the troops. Please email me by next Wednesday, October 1st, if you want in! Future emails will just go to you and the 7th & 8th graders who have already signed up.

The Music:

Cds of our main selection, “The Manger Medley”, are out. I was delighted to have found such an awesome, contemporary piece. It will be yours alone, not performed with Crusader Chorale. You may decide as a group whether or not you’d like to join the Chorale girls (“Jingle Bell Rock”) & Chorale boys (“Nuttin’ for Christmas”). There are 67 Chorale students performing this fall. You have paved the way for many of these young performers over the years. Thanks so much for your continued leadership!

Responsibilities & Rehearsals:

You will need to learn the music mostly without me, with the cds. We will gather a handful Wednesdays during lunch breaks, here & there during Oct & Nov to pull things together, work out harmonies, and sharpen vocal skills. This is a service project as unto the Lord! I anticipate having so much fun with y’all, but please do not sign up if you can’t truly commit. We will meet Wed Oct 8th & Wed Oct 15th - and then we’ll see!

Performances:

1. Washington Square

6:00-6:30 pm Thursday, Dec. 4th, to be confirmed.

2. WHCS Concert & Assembly Of course!

Friday, Dec. 12th, 8:00am Before school sound check, 8:30am Assembly, 7:00pm Concert

(You will be done singing by 7:30pm, no need to stick around for the whole evening concert). There will be a Wed Dec.10th before school riser set & sound check. Let’s be honest- I’ll probably want you there too.

Misc:

No charge.

No costumes. (We’ll go with red, black, gray colors)

No whining, no twisting your arm, no excuses.

Nothing but those of you who want to sing with excellence for Jesus!

~Looking forward to this fun holiday adventure together again. I’ve missed you!
