*IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR WS, AO & SO WIND AND BRASS PLAYERS

The orchestra must have a full wind and brass section at rehearsals as much as possible.

Please ensure a member of your section is able to cover your part for rehearsal so we always have a full complement of wind and brass players in each piece. You have been provided a contact list a the beginning of the year so you should know every section member. Notify your Section Leader of your absence.

*IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR AO & SO STRING PLAYERS

Please Notify your stand partner of your absence so that he/she remembers to bring his/her music to rehearsal and makes necessary adjustments to the seating arrangements at rehearsal. (Note, every string player should always bring their music to rehearsal.)

*IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR PERCUSSIONISTS

Please Notify Mr. Artie Storch and your section of your absence so that necessary adjustments can be made at rehearsal to cover essential parts.

As a general rule, and why all percussionists have a set of all the parts to each piece, the TIMPANI part should always be covered.
