Hello Chorale,
Couple of updates to keep you posted.
1) Kathy and I will be in Riverside California at the Choral
Conducting Seminar this coming week, Oct 5-9, studying with Dr. Gary Bonner
at California Baptist University. This will be about the 22nd week I've
spent at one of the seminars during the past 20+ years. It's a very
helpful, but intense time of learning better conducting techniques, learning
new music, being critiqued by fellow-conductors, and having an opportunity
to conduct the CBU choir and orchestra, the Bonner Singers (about 70
singers), the Men's chorus, and the Women's choirs. I always gain much from
the experience.even though it's sometimes rather grueling.from 9:00 AM to
9:00 PM every day. I would appreciate your prayers for stamina, skill, and
ability to implement what I learn.
I have asked Randy Walker to run the first half of rehearsal this Tuesday,
and Carl Cross will lead the second half. Please support them as they work
on songs that we've planned and discussed. If there happens to be any new
members, please make them welcome. I appreciate your cooperation and
support.
2) The Christmas rehearsal CD contained a few additional songs that we
will not be doing for the programs. Here's the actual program (in
performance order) that we will do with orchestra:
1. Sing we now of Christmas
2. Pavane for a Silent Night
3. The Glory of God / while shepherd watched
4. How Many Kings
5. Joy! A Carol Medley
6. Behold The Lamb
7. Unto Us A son is given
8. Festival of Carols
9. Midnight around the manger
10. Glory to God in the Highest
11. Adore Hymn
12. Mary, Go Tell it
13. Come make a place in me
14. We Beheld His Glory
15. Song of the Angels
I've also included the schedule for the remainder of 2009. Please note that
there are some changes for times/locations for the Christmas concerts and
locations relative to earlier schedules that I sent to you.
Thanks again for all your support and enthusiastic singing. You're a
wonderful group of folks.
Bruce
