“Clef Notes”#5 – January 9, 2018
Happy New Year! It’s an exciting time for the White Station Orchestras, with performances, chamber music ensembles, solo studies, Concert Festival preparation, and many other exciting opportunities scheduled for the Spring semester! Here is the “clef notes” edition. Practice Plan #5 starts on January 8, and will be due February 1. White Station’s Optional Open House is Tuesday, January 16 at 6:00 p.m. Several of the 6th period chamber quartets will be involved in this showcase. There will be three progressive playing tests covering Dvorak’s Romantische Stucke solo. Due dates (submitted to [email protected]) are January 17, 24, and February 2. The All-West Orchestra Clinic is February 8-9 at the Cannon Center. If you have not yet done so, please complete and return the Student Contract and the $40 registration fee (checks made to White Station High School). I will also be collecting Contracts (but not money) from the alternates, too. The Spartan String Festival is March 5, 6:30 p.m. at White Station Middle School. The Concert Festival field trip will be on either March 7 or 8. New on the website, whitestationorchestra.weebly.com 1) ASSIGNMENTS (under the WSHS ORCHESTRAS header) will have homework, playing tests, and assignments organized by month 2) An “UPDATES” page now is in the main banner. I will use this to post audition results, important schedule changes, and other “need-to-know” information. New events on the Auditions, Festivals, and Competitions page that YOU can do: UT-Knoxville has a Cello Workshop on February 23-25. UT-Martin has a two-day honor clinic on April 27-28. There is also a two-week “future music educator” camp in June. The ACT-SO Performing Arts application and information is on our website. Please visit the website and explore the pages for documents, links, and additional details. See you at the concerts! Dr. Andrew Palmer Comments are closed.
