NSYWE Music and parts assignments

Most of the music and part assignments are up on the NSYWE website.

You must login to see your parts!

Zoë has sorted the percussion parts and I will send the percussionists a separate email soon

If you have any questions or your part is missing, please let me know. New players have been added.

We will be able to adjust parts in March.

Serenade is not available on the website yet.

NSYWE COVID Protocols

All NSYWE COVID protocols will continue for the March Rehearsals.

Please do a self-check for symptoms before each rehearsal. If you have any symptoms or are a close contact please do not come to rehearsal.

Proof of vaccination is not required.

Playing masks and bell covers are still required for ensembles during Phase 1 of reopening.

Because of the transmissibility of the Omicron variant, it is recommended that we upgrade to a K95, KN95 or KF95 playing mask if possible. I will have that quality of mask available for your use.

If you have any questions or concerns, please e-mail me.
