02/12/2021 – Marty’s Missives – Will you be my singing Valentine?
Good evening folks,
What a week!!! Fun rehearsal, beautiful feathery snowflakes, 2 days at the Chorus America virtual conference, attendance at the Maryland Arts Day and finishing an epic tale This Tender Land. And looking forward to a Valentine feast on Sunday. A full week indeed.
Bravo to all who uploaded their video. Danny is thrilled with the number of folks who supported the premiere of his arrangement and now for the production. Can’t wait for the result. To date we have 72 participants. The launch will be on the first day of Spring ( vernal equinox) which marks a time of rebirth and renewal.
Our schedule for Tuesday:
Special guest putting us through some warmups.
Viva la Musica
Movement 1 The Mountains are Calling
Hope
Member Spotlight
Hand in Hand
Africa
I wish you all a wonderful weekend of music, chocolate hearts and LOVE!!
If you have time, do watch the first two selections of this Russian performance. Will we ever be able to do this again? Take special note of the conductor’s baton. I need to work on my technique!?
Musical hugs,
Marty
