From Dr. Whitmire: Dear Singers-
Can you believe August is here? As you know, Fall 2014 classes begin on August 20. You must be registered before then, as there is no longer any late registration. Many of you are not yet registered. Please do so right away.
The way to make our chorus sound even better is to improve the vocal ability of each singer. The way to do that is to study singing. Please consider one of these classes:
Class Voice MUS 131
Monday and Tuesday at 6:00 pm
Vocal Seminar MUS 198 01a
Saturday 3:00 pm
My other Fall 2014 classes are:
Music Appreciation
MUS 12103a Friday at 9:00 am
Learn how music works- Bach to Rock
Guitar Class
MUS 16301a Monday at 7:30 pm or
MUS 16302a Tuesday at 11:00 am
Anyone can learn to play the guitar and its fun.
Let me know if you have any questions about any of these classes.
Attached is the latest Fall Chorus Schedule (.pdf).
I look forward to seeing you at our first rehearsal of August 26.

From Dr. Whitmire: Dear Singers-
-I hope you are having a wonderful summer. I have enjoyed some restful days, but am now turning my attention to our Fall season.
-Please register for chorus now (MUS137 01a). If you know skilled singers who are looking for a great group, please recruit them. We are singing Mozart’s Solemn Vespers and Vaughan Williams’ Five Mystical Songs. It doesn’t get any better than that!
-Our Saturday rehearsals will be 12 noon to 1:30 pm. Those of you who have regularly done so, please register for the Saturday section (MUS 237 01A).
-I hope that many of you will also register for MUS 198 01a Seminar and Project (#64675): Vocal Repertoire which will meet immediately following Saturday chorus rehearsal.
This vocal performance seminar will emphasize technique, style, diction, and interpretation. It will afford a weekly a opportunity to perform your songs weekly
with an expert piano accompanist, Christine Hagan. I will need some of my senior students to register as paying students to make a go of it.
-I also have two sections of Beginning Guitar (MUS163 01a and 02a). It is always great fun. I’d love to have you in the class.
More to come. In the meanwhile, have a great summer.

I have enjoyed having you in chorus this semester. It is very important that you complete an on-line course evaluation. Go to http://nveval.com. Do it right away as the evaluation period ends soon. Go to info@iotasolutions.com should you have any trouble.

Fall 2014 registration is already under way for continuing students, so register now. (It is not clear how this change affects seniors, but I am assured that the process has been improved.)

Reminder:The postponed performance of the Haydn mass is this Saturday, January 4, at the Masonic Memorial. The call is 12:30 pm; concert time is 3:00 pm. I have only heard from one person the might not be there, so I am expecting all of you to be present.
We have an important rehearsal on Friday, January 3, at 7:30 pm in the choir room at NOVA. As you can imagine, I need everyone present. Please work with your rehearsal CD every day between now and then.
Upcoming semester
Sheet music and rehearsal tracks for Sea surface full of clouds are now available at http://www.novachorus.org/music-files. It is modern and very interesting. Like other modern works, it may take time to fully appreciate.
Sheet music and rehearsal tracks for Jazz Mass are also available at http://www.novachorus.org/music-files. I hope it will be fun and exciting for you to revisit this piece. Thanks to our fabulous webmistress Kate.
You may print and download music for free. I will have sheet music and CDs at our first rehearsal if you want to purchase them.
Happy New year to all. -DrW

From Dr. Whitmire: Dear Singers-
As you see below, our 2nd concert has been rescheduled for Saturday, January 4. Please make every effort to sing. Let me know if you cannot sing. You have infested so much in this magnificent music, we simply must sing it again.
What an incredible season! Brahms’ Neue Liebeslieder in October and Haydn Mass in time of war in December. You brought such musicianship and vocality to each. I am proud to direct such a fine group.
The next season is going to be equally great. I hope you enjoy singing my Jazz Mass again at the Black History Month concert. I think you will enjoy being a part of the premier of Sea surface full of clouds by Larry Ries. I know you will love singing Frostiana by Randall Thomson. Please register for chorus as soon as you can. If you know good singers who would enjoy singing with us, sign them up!
Also-Please consider taking a course next semester to strengthen you musicianship so that you can make a maximum contribution to our chorus.

Subject: Second Performance of DEC Concert SAT., JAN 4 2014
Hi all,
The second, postponed performance of the December 8 concert will be on Saturday, January 4. We’ll have a lengthy rehearsal from 12:30 to 2:30 PM, with the concert at 3 PM. We’ll perform at the Masonic Memorial (it is available) OR T. C. Williams (have not been able to communicate with them due to weather closings). I’ll confirm the location as soon as I can discuss the concert with TCW.
This should leave enough time for everyone to schedule the event into their calendar. I did not think it possible to bring the orchestra together for a concert prior to Christmas given everyone’s previous committments. If you currently have a conflict on January 4, please do everything you can to resolve it so that you can perform that day with WMP. If you can’t, please let me know.
Strings, the January 4 weekend will be very busy as the first rehearsal for the February concert will be on Sunday, January 5 from 5 to 8 PM. Please plan on it as well!
Warmest regards,
Ul
