We had an awesome second rehearsal....we are reaching nearly 70 members...wow! The music room is CROWDED! But, in spite of that, we got some great work done on the opening piece of the musical. Everyone is learning Part 2 for right now because I think it is really important to be able to hear and read music that might not always be the melody. They did really well. We will eventually assign parts but for now, the whole ensemble is learning both. We did a detailed work through of the song "Jingle Bell Jukebox," learning the pitches, rhythms, and just practicing the words because they are HARD! We started some work on the beginning of our 4th piece, "Jingle Bells Rock," which is a fun mash up of "Jingle Bells" and "Jingle Bell Rock."
Great behavior and work from all participants! Hooray!
