Second Rehearsal Preview Posted on September 1, 2015 From Dr. Whitmire: Welcome to our 2nd rehearsal of Fall 2015! It is going to be a great season. Please sign in. Senior Registrations-As you know the college likes each class to have a least 10 paying students. Concerned about the viability of our Saturday rehearsal class (MUS 237), I asked if some of my seniors would register as paying students. And abracadabra! 23 seniors registered. What’s more, it appears that almost all my seniors registered for Tuesday Chorus (MUS 137) as paying students. This is good news for the college. However, it leaves us in a bit of a bind as regards paying expenses that have previously been covered by donations from seniors- mainly compensation for our fabulous accompanist Chris Hagan. So, as you begin to think about your end-of the year charitable giving, please keep us in mind.Donations of any amount are appreciated. Make your tax-deductible checks toNVCC Foundation and give them to me at any time. Thanks. Attendance Please try not to be absent. If you miss more than two rehearsals during preparation for a concert, you will be asked to audition to demonstrate preparedness.
