3. As noted in the schedule, on Saturday you may bring a nut-free snack to eat at 7:00pm before the concert.
4. Please practice and memorize your music! Listen to the recordings as many times as you can!
5. When in rehearsal, please do not talk, fidget, or take out your phone. Give the Maestro your complete attention and focus. Come in confidently and sing your best!
