Concert at the Corvallis Nativity Festival - Ensemble only

We are scheduled to play from 1pm to 2pm on Sunday, December 6th.  Park in the back parking lot.  As you enter the back door, turn left into a hallway.  There will be two rooms at the end of the hall where we can leave cases and coats.  We will not be able to access the playing area until 1pm.  I hope that we will be able to set up quickly.  We'll talk about seating at our next rehearsal.  Chairs will be provided but you will need to bring a stand.  The organizers of the festival are very excited to hear us play!  I'm hoping for a group photo.......

Concert at Timberhill Place Assisted Living- All Students

Our concert is Saturday, December 12th and we are scheduled to start playing at 10am.  Our performance will be in the dining room.  As you enter the building, you may need to sign in.  The dining hall is to the left of the main desk.  Plan to arrive by 9:45.  We'll find a corner for our coats and cases.  You are welcome to invite family.  However, the concert is for the residents so please make sure they are able to sit in front.  Chairs will be provided but you will need to bring a music stand.   I'm hoping for a group photo before we start......

We'll have a group rehearsal for the non ensemble pieces on Friday, December 11th at 4pm in the main Lesson Loft area at Gracewinds.  It will last no more than an hour.
