03/16/2021 – DCYC March Update – Spring Concert Date!
Dear DCYC Parents,
I am excited to share that we have had many updates and developments with regards to our Spring calendar and I’m thrilled to have some special events and performances to look forward to with our DCYC singers! To help you have everything in one place – I’ve updated and attached our DCYC 2021 Spring Calendar. We have been making wonderful progress in our rehearsals and I’m excited to hear everything together in April. Please keep reading for some important info below:
I’ve added a few new videos to our DCYC Flipgrid page. We have a number of solo opportunities in our Spring Repertoire and they will audition by sharing a video on our Flipgrid Page. This is a page we used last spring and this fall so you will see a variety of “topics” listed. Seasons of Love, I See Colors and Al Shlosha are the current songs with solos this Spring. You do need to login to use flipgrid – but once you’ve done it the first time, it shouldn’t ask your child again. Flipgrid is regularly used by educators and should be accessible from a chromebook/school computer.
Please encourage your child to keep practicing their DCYC music in between Thursdays! Please help your singer find a way they can consistently access these recordings – either through downloading or bookmarking the google folder. Click here to access the google drive folder for our DCYC Learning Files. Under “Spring 2021”, you will find 2 folders – one for each voice part. Our 5:15pm singers are all Soprano/Treble 1 and our 6:30pm singers are Alto/Treble 2 (except for Let there be Love – Altos should learn Treble 3)
April 8, 15, 22 – Rehearsal times will be extended to allow for some combined rehearsal time from 6-6:45pm as we prepare for concert recording & performance. Treble 1: 5:15-6:45pm Treble 2: 6:00-7:30pm
We are excited to have a new date for this outdoor event with our 2020 Charitable Partner. Please save the date on your calendar for your child to join us. We look forward to spending the morning with choir friends as we learn about this important waterway in our community. Singers should wear their Teal DCYC Shirts.
April 29th 5-7:30pm – DCYC Concert Recording Night at Bethel – we will be recording our spring repertoire to be included in a virtual concert that will be released in May. Singers should wear their Teal DCYC T-shirt with Black pants.
SAVE THE DATE! Sunday, May 23rd – 3pm – DCYC Spring Outdoor Concert @ Starbright Farms
As always – please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I’m looking forward to warmer weather and sharing the beautiful music your children are making in the coming months!
