TUGGA-DUT! (One Last Time)
-
-
We are starting to conquer the challenge of “Italian In
Algiers.”
-
-
The “TUGGA-DUT” technique lets us play that tune with more
excitement and drive that we could do otherwise.
-
-
Sure, it’s a bit of extra work, but PLEASE do work on it a bit
each day between now and the concert. It will really pay off if
you do!

RECORDING OF 2/23 REHEARSAL
-
-
Our friend Steve Northrup (Trombone) again recorded our
rehearsal with his digital recorder.
-
-
He has uploaded his recordings again, for those who’d like to
listen during the week.

MC BAND CONCERT TONIGHT
-
-
Tonight, Tuesday, February 24, 2009, at 7:30 PM, the Mississippi
College band, under the baton of our friend Dr. Craig Young, and
augmented by a few of our own players, will be giving a concert
in the Swor Auditorium on the MC Campus.
-
-
Our Horn Section Leader, Betsy Landers (who is playing with them
for this concert), says this of the event:
It will be quite
entertaining! Dr. Young always likes to put some squirrelly
stuff in there and this one is no different! We are playing a
song called "Snakes," and all kinds of things to make it
interesting! It will not be a very long concert. Playing the
"Liberty Bell”, "With Quiet Courage" by Larry Daehn, and a
really cool (and difficult!!!) piece - A Download Suite by John
Ireland, plus a few other little things. We need a crowd and I
figured since Craig has been a part of our group on occasion,
that we should support him!!!
-
-
I agree. If you have some time tonight, go to MC Swor
Auditorium, support their band, and have a good time at the
concert!
-
-
==========================================
-
-
See you at rehearsal Monday!

Take care,
