- Uniforms and DVD’s distributed this week
- Voice class reminder
- Remember to check web for information
Dear Singers and Parents,
We are less than 6 weeks away from the concert! We have had great time learning the repertoire -- many languages, many styles and cultures -- lots of fun and an exciting challenge. The program, called Danza! will feature music based on dance rhythms and melodies: from waltz to stomp, from tango to tribal dances of Malasia.
We are entering a very important stage of repertoire learning when much of interpretative details are solidified thus attendance is
extremely important. The last few weeks were pretty rough in term of attendance: school trips, family vacations, sickness...
Thank you for your consistent messages to remind about scheduled ahead absences and the last minute notes to let us know
that your singer is about to miss a rehearsal. This has been very helpful in my planning of rehearsal and it shows that you care.
Please, keep in mind that there are only 7 rehearsals left before the concert and the attendance is more important than ever.
Another reminder: if your singer missed 3 or more rehearsals (including the retreat), he or she need to sing for me
on one of these dates (all mondays): April 9, 16 or May 7. Please email me directly at elena@cantabile.org with your date preference
or any questions. I will be listening to singers in small groups, one or two on a part, depending on who shows up.
Have a great week and keep in touch!
Elena Sharkova
Cantabile Artistic Director
1. PLEASE KEEP READING BELOW FOR UNIFORM INFO!
UNIFORMS/DVD’S
Karen will be passing them out again at rehearsal from 5:30-6:00 pm, Wednesday April 11th. If you ordered a DVD (or a CD and didn’t receive it), please plan on arriving during this time frame so you can pick up. Leftover DVD’s and uniforms not picked up will be stored at the church through Wed., April 11th. Parents will be responsible for making arrangements to pick them up at our Palo Alto office after this date.
Uniform return policy:
Any uniforms that need to be exchanged must be done by Wednesday, April 11th. Karen will be at the rehearsal on 4/11 from 5:30-6 pm to take any final exchanges. The women’s Palazzo pants are custom made and difficult to exchange, therefore we recommend you have them altered as needed.
