Rehearsal Schedule
and other information for members
General information
The orchestra rehearses throughout the year with occasional breaks. The normal rehearsal time is Thursday evenings at 7:30. Concerts are held on Sunday evenings, and there are extra rehearsals during the week of the concert: one on the preceding Tuesday (7:30 p.m.) and one on Saturday afternoon (1:00 p.m.). Most but not all rehearsals take place in the Luther Hall (fellowship building) of the Palisades Lutheran Church; directions here.
Always make sure that the Orchestra President, Denisa Hanna (click here to email) has your email address so you will be notified of any last-minute changes.
Current schedule
We are currently about to perform a concert on February 5.
(Tchaikovsky Rococo Variations, Bruch Kol Nidre,
Brahms 1st, Copland "Hoedown")
Then we will take a one-week break.
Then we start rehearsals for a concert on March 19.
Orchestra policy for rehearsal attendance, from Denisa:
2.
Cookies will be consumed outside, NO EXCEPTIONS!! I will be
monitoring this!
3. Winds will be further back during rehearsals, we can’t have them wear masks to play! This is the rule with quite a few orchestras now, and seems to be working for them, plus, if everyone else is masked, there shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
