Info for Sunday Oct 20

Hi everyone!!

Thank you for some great work this weekend. Your positivity, creativity, and quick learning when it comes to music and choreography is so appreciated! We are moving along at a steady pace for our first performances of Constellations on November 3rd, but we still have a lot of work to do!

To that end, when we next meet on Sunday Oct 20, Christina and I will be expecting all music and choreography we've worked on to date to be memorized as per the memorization schedule. We know it was the end of a long rehearsal on Sunday evening, but there were still several shaky parts throughout the Prologue + Polaris in terms of both music and movement. A reminder of what needs to be memorized/worked on:

I Himmelan (music + choreography memorized - please spend some significant time solidifying the Swedish as we were still struggling with this on Sunday)
Ave Maria (music + choreography memorized)
Magnificat (music + choreography memorized)

Royals (music + choreography solid)
Aglepta (music memorized)
Illumina (music memorized)
Warrior (music memorized)

With performances coming up so soon, we can't emphasize enough how important it is to be looking over your music and choreography regularly so that it stays fresh. Please prioritize this over the next two weeks. We know that if we all work together we can create something spectacular...let's do it!

If you missed any part of rehearsal on Sunday, you MUST review the notes and videos Erin has posted on the blog, and meet with a member of your section to get detailed notes and go over the Royals choreography.

Reminder that on Sunday, October 20, we will be rehearsing from 2:30-7:00 pm. All company are called for the entire rehearsal. Here's what we'll be working on: Illumina (music + choreography), Aglepta (music + choreography), Warrior (music), I Himmelan (music + choreography), and the improvisation elements that will be part of the Creative NS Awards on October 25th. At 5:30 pm we will transition to the Museum of Natural History for the rest of our rehearsal. If you have access to a car and can bring it to rehearsal or arrange a drive, that would be very helpful to ensure that we all get to the museum in a timely manner.

Thank you all for being the brilliant and wonderful people that you are. We can't wait to blow everyone away at all of our upcoming performances!! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend and we'll be thinking of you while in BC!

Love, Claire & Christina
