Hello,

I

Rehearsals begin at 4:00pm and end at 5:15pm. Please do
not enter the choir room before 3:45, as there are middle school rehearsals in
session. Singers should be picked up from rehearsal no later than 5:25pm. Thank
you for respecting the evening commitments of the Honors Choir staff.

There is another opera-tunity for Honors Choir singers to
view Carmen through the Metropolitan Opera’s educational outreach
program! The Honors Choir staff will take the first 50 Honors Choir singers who
sign up. This will happen on Saturday, February 2, 2019. As with our previous
opera trip, students will meet to learn about opera and the music from Carmen
before traveling to Forum 8 Theater to watch the opera. Please pack a sack
lunch for your child, as school cafeterias will be closed on the weekend. The
opera begins at 11:55am at Forum 8 Theater and will last for approximately 3
hours, 45 minutes with intermissions in between each act. Follow this Google
Forms link to sign up your singer to view “Carmen” on February 2: https://goo.gl/forms/X0syqq01yiW4pubA2

T-Shirt Update: The Honors Choir t-shirts are
in! I will distribute them
to singers at this afternoon’s rehearsal. It’s not too late to purchase Honors
Choir T-shirts! I
have ordered extras in each size available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Shirts are $10 each. Checks must be made payable to Columbia Public Schools.
Please write Honors Choir in the memo line.

If your student will be absent from any Honors
Choir rehearsal or event, please email me as soon as possible.
Have a great week!
