(latest changes coloured)
- Don’t forget that next week’s rehearsal (February 17th) is in St Martin’s Church, with the concert, of course, on Feb 19th.
- The May and July concerts have been re-jigged because the organ installation schedule at St Barnabas’s has slipped. Very likely to be William Alwyn’s Third Symphony in May, and the Rach has been moved from there to July. And most of the music for Latvia has been put in, so it has a chance of being presentable when we get there.
- The programmes page now has the whole 2010-11 season, as far as it’s known. All dates are now definite, so it’s May 14th and July 16th next summer.
- The Latvia trip is on! Concert in Cesis, as part of the Cesis Festival, on Saturday July 30th. If you haven’t yet told Catherine Jarvis whether or not you are coming, please do so urgently, as the plane seats have to be reserved.
- It’s not too soon to start thinking about what you might offer for the chamber music concert on Sunday June 26th.
- Rehearsal and concert schedule is on the members’ page, kept updated as information arrives. Full programmes at www.ealingso.org.uk/progs.html .
- You can now pay your subscription by bank transfer. Please check with Paul or RKP if you need the details.
- Playing subs are now £38 per concert (we don’t charge for more than four), or £135 for the whole season if you pay before the first concert. Special rates apply if you’re very young, very old or just broke: have a quiet word with Paul.
- Please note that subs are due for each concert by the concert date, and of course they still apply if you’ve come to most of the rehearsals, even if you have to miss the concert. It’s quite in order to pay for the first concert and then make it up to the discounted annual rate by the AGM.
- The new, improved web site is being tested, and should be going on line fairly soon. Many thanks to Paul Jefferson for a considerable amount of work.
- More adverts for the concert programme are always welcome. See Richard or Steve Warrington.
- Don't forget to let Richard know if you move, change 'phone number, email etc. Ta!
