Sunday Feb 9 Rehearsal! Welcome Back!

Hi everyone!!

Christina and I are sitting in a cafe for our regular Wednesday meeting and we are still glowing about last weekend's performances!! Thank you all so, so much. It was an extraordinary week and we are so grateful for your talent and dedication. We definitely made magic for our audiences!!!!!!

We will have several singers joining or re-joining us this Sunday (yaaaay!!!) Welcome back to Tejas, Sarah, Robin, and Shila, and welcome to Maggie and Corinne!

And now we are on to the next show and round of projects. Never a dull moment in Xara land! Here's what you need to know for this Sundays' rehearsal:

• Due to a booking conflict at St Matthew's, we will be rehearsing at Bethany United Church for this Sunday only. The church is located at 7171 Clinton Ave (by the rotary), please enter from the doors off the Clinton Ave parking lot.
• Full company called for 1:15 pm.
• We'll be doing a bunch of fun stuff - a Constellations debrief, the show & tell for our new show Waiting on the Eastern Line, some fun intro activities, and sight singing a whole bunch of new music!
• For the last hour of rehearsal (4:30-5:30 pm) we will be recording some of the music from Constellations. Only those singers who performed in Constellations should plan to stay for this last hour. The songs we'll record this week are Warrior, From Ash You Rise, and Lux Aeterna.

Please bring all of your music from Constellations. You will be able to turn in some of it to Erin this week.

Thanks everyone!!!! We can't wait to be back together again on Sunday!!!!!!!!!!

PS - 

We've had a request from Heather Fraser at the Nova Scotia Choral Federation asking for volunteers for one of the Podium projects. She writes:

"Just a question re Podium’s Juvenata Project… this is the massed high school honour choir we’re assembling for the final highlight concert.

We’re now gathering volunteers and I’m wondering if any of the Xara girls might want to help with the teens on that weekend?  It would be nice to have younger faces as supervisers/chaperones and at the Sat night entertainment we’re running some trivia and a coffee house and it might be great, if some of them wanted to help?  I would love to get them involved. Please pass it on and let me know!!   Have them contact me if interested!" (programs@nscf.ns.ca)
