Fall Concert Update

9/20/2022

 
Greetings Brookwood Chorus families!

Our fall in-person concert is next week!  Here are a few details/updates:

Required Afterschool Rehearsal (Test Grade)
Monday, September 26 - Starting at 2:25pm
Location:  Brookwood Theatre

After reviewing our progress from the previous week, I've determined that not everyone will have to stay for the entire length of the rehearsal.  Students are welcome to stay and watch the rest of the rehearsal quietly instead of leaving early.  All students should leave via the Maroon Gym/Theatre Lobby entrance (car riders).  Students do NOT need to wear the chorus uniform. 

2nd Period - Dismissed by approximately 3:25pm.
3rd Period - Dismissed by approximately  3:40pm.
4th Period - Dismissed by approximately  3:50pm.
5th Period - Dismissed by approximately  4pm.
Honors Chorale will rehearse until about 4:15pm.

Fall Dress Rehearsal – Required/Test Grade
Date:  September 26, 2022
Location:  Brookwood Theatre
Time:  2:25pm-5pm. 
            The vast majority of students will *not* need to stay for the entire rehearsal time.  Approximately one week prior to the rehearsal, I will send out a schedule based on the progress we make in class over the next couple of weeks.  2nd period students will more than likely be released prior to 4pm; 3rd period students released prior to 4:20pm; 4th & 5th period students will be released prior to 4:30pm.  Chorale students will be released last.  Stay tuned for a more exact schedule.  Cell phone usage is strictly prohibited during all rehearsals.
Students do not need to wear formal concert attire for the dress rehearsal.
 
Uniform Update
If your child ordered uniform pieces, they were distributed in class on Friday, September 9.  Try the uniform on this weekend!

Do you still need to order something?  Click here.  I would order this weekend so that it hopefully makes it to you before the concert.

Honors Chorale
Honors Chorale is a mixed auditioned group of 10th-12th grade students.  In addition to performing at our fall concert, Honors Chorale is also performing:
  • Homecoming Football Game:  September 23, approximately 7:15pm.  Singing the National Anthem.

Have a wonderful weekend!
