[Choir] schedule this week

[Donia Prince]

Hi everyone!

*Testing: *  We should all test before each of our gatherings this week:
Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.  Originally I had just said Sat and Sunday
but I think it is wise to do so for Thursday as well, for our peace of mind
and safety.  If you need help with testing, let me know and please arrive
early.  If you need more tests, please let me know as well.

Rehearsal schedule:

*Thursday 6:30-8:00*
We will just take a couple minute stretch break this rehearsal rather than
our full one.  The children and flutist will be there first thing so we
will start with Place in the Choir, then revisit Sing Gently and work more
on Gift to Sing.

*Saturday 10-12 am*
This will be primarily a run through of the program, as well as giving a
little attention to any trouble spots.

*Sunday arrive at 8:30 am*
We will warm up and rehearse from 8:30-9, then have a "tech" run through
from 9-9:45, where we will practice transitions with microphones and
cameras, and with us getting up and down, etc.  Service starts at 10!
Woohoo!

We also have a tech rehearsal on Friday from 11:30-12:30.  It is mainly
important for those with solos and speaking parts to be there, but if any
other choir members are curious and available, you are welcome to attend.
It would be helpful actually for more people to have a sense of the flow of
the service before Saturday--will make things that much more efficient.
But totally optional.

I'm attaching the video to Place in the Choir--I encourage you to sing
along a few times to get more comfortable with all of the words!  If anyone
needs me to resend any of the other practice tracks--for Sing Gently and
Gift to Sing, let me know.

Thanks in advance for all of your hard work this week--I know it will be
demanding but I hope and expect also worthwhile!
See you Thursday!
Donia
