Orchestra News - 9/28/07

Contents:
1) Lots on the blog!!
2) PLEASE read your handbook
3) Anyone have an extra violin in the family?
4) SCO this Saturday - get those concert going review points now!!
5) Entertainment books available

1) Please check the blog often: www.titanorchestras.blogspot.com -
Ms.Silberman's posted info and links for all students.

2) Have you really read the handbook? Really? Oh yeah? Ok, what's the Bob
Marley quote at the end??? Please make sure that you're dutifully informed so
that our program runs as smoothly as possible.

3) If anyone has an old (first?) violin in the family that your student
isn't using, we have need to provide a few students with violins - even if it's
just a loan for a short while. Our classroom is short on violins
due to a repair and rehair issue (which will be hopefully resolved by
November). Please contact Ms. Silberman if you have an instrument that might be
happier practiced on than left in a closet.

4) Salem Chamber Orchestra is performing this Saturday, Sept. 29.
Ms.Silberman's husband, violist Danny Seidenberg, is in the viola section, as well as
many other Salem-Keizer orchestra teachers. BEETHOVEN'S 5th!!! Really - you
know, Duh Duh Duh Duhhhhhhh. Come hear this wonderful piece - possibly one of
the most recognized pieces ever - and students can review the concert for one
of their 2 concert reviews due each semester. Concert starts at 7:30 p.m. at
the Elsinore. Student tickets are $5.00.
