Tuesday - Some Guests

Wayne Downey and Dan Fong dropped by during the evening ensemble block. Dan is the long time Mandarins brass arranger, and Wayne has been on board as a music consultant, reviewing drafts of musical scores, suggesting changes and giving further input on revisions as they are written.

Brass caption head Chris McCoy and percussion caption head Blair Williams have been working the music ensemble throughout the week. Wayne did offer several constructive comments for enhancing the show's soundtrack, and was very complimentary of both the written book and initial implementation.

The week continues on here at Antelope High School; had a couple of birthdays yesterday, and one of the parents brought by a birthday cake! Having three fields, including use of the stadium, has really been an asset for us. Ray Mar has indicated how lucky we are to have the support of the school administration (he actually said this during a midnight run to the grocery store for some last minute breakfast items).

Another full day of rehearsal tomorrow and then Family Night on Thursday!
