Letter from Mr. Larson (12/2)

Sinfonia East Students and Families,

Thank you all for working hard at this week’s rehearsal. We are ready to share some music in our final performance of the semester. Many thanks to families who brought some treats to share at our first multi-orchestra treat night! Philarmonia East and Sinfonia East took a break to enjoy a snack and talk to each other. It was fun seeing students meet up with friends in the other orchestra as well as meet new people as everyone tried to get a bingo (for more treats).

There will be a separate message with all of the details for next week’s concert. Make sure to double check location and plan ahead for travel time.

With your GTCYS 10 work to be consistent with dynamics and articulations. In Winter Wonderland, ask yourself, “do I have the melody OR do I support the melody”? Let the answer guide your dynamics.
