We have been delayed in finalizing our rehearsal schedule this year due to a lack of available locations for our rehearsals. We are beginning online for our September 19 and 26 rehearsals, please watch for an email with your rehearsal time and zoom link.
Our top priority is the safety of everyone involved, including musicians, conductors, administrators, and families. We will be re-opening in-person rehearsals in a slow and safe way, with a lot of planning between our staff and our rehearsal locations. We will continue to offer online rehearsals until we are able to open our doors to in-person rehearsals, and will emphasize smaller groups when we do interact with others.
For our October rehearsals, we are hoping to establish a pattern of in-person and online rehearsals for each division. We have currently secured one location and are planning to secure a second before announcing the overall schedule. As much as we would like to announce rehearsal locations far in advance, we are unable to confirm these locations more than a month in advance. We will share the October schedule in the last week of September.
Registration numbers also affect our scheduling. We are currently planning in-person rehearsals for the number of musicians that have completed their registration including paying tuition fees. If your registration is processed after we determine our in-person schedule, we may not be able to accommodate you for the next in-person rehearsal due to limited numbers at the rehearsal venue.
