Dear Singers,
Sectionals: The second mixed sectional for all singers will take place from 6:45-7:25PM tomorrow night. Please attend and bring any repertoire questions for Laura.
Attention Alto 1s: Rah has requested that the Alto1s gather for a picture at the break.
Diversity Committee Update: The Diversity Committee has gathered a list of resources to help us think about diversity, equity, and inclusion. The list includes books, feature films, articles, podcasts, and more. Some are specifically related to diversity in choral singing, like the slides from a presentation Laura attended at ACDA. Others are about culture more broadly. If you need a place to start, Rachel recommends Kira Thurman, “Singing Against the Grain: Playing Beethoven in the #Black Lives Matter era” It’s a beautifully written reflection on the difficulties and contradictions inherent in being a Black classical musician. We would also love to hear from you! If you have resources to add, put them in the Comments for the Diversity Committee Google Form, and we will be happy to add them.
Nominating Committee: Nominations will close tomorrow night so last chance for members to nominate themselves or others (with their permission). Please contact Amy, amysueglass19@gmail.com, Kay, 2ndalto@gmail.com or Brystana brystana@gmail.com with your nominations.
Zoom Link for Rehearsal: You can join the Zoom Rehearsals here. Meeting ID: 858 3293 4624; Password: 121074.
Thanks everyone – see you tomorrow night
Janet
