These benefits exist across socioeconomic levels. When To Applaud - Performers always appreciate applause, but there are appropriate moments to applaud.

Entering and Exiting the Auditorium - Never enter or exit the auditorium during a performance. If you must enter or exit, please wait until the performance on stage has been completed. The most appropriate times to move about are during audience applause or set changes. CONCERT BAND Talking - Talking should not be tolerated. It is not only distracting to the performer, but to every person in the audience. It is just plain rude to talk (even whispering can be heard) during a musical performance. If someone around you is talking, ask them PICCCOLO BASS CLARINET FRENCH HORN nicely to please stop.

The thematic material representing both sisters is first Sunday - January 7, 2007 introduced in this section along with a medieval Gregorian chant-type motif.

    FALL 2011 ChoruspondenceVirginia Lynn Vann, Editor The Memphis Symphony Chorus Hello Everyone! Letter From the Editor My name is Ginny and I am the new editor of Choruspondence! It was an honor to have been asked by Lisa to take over Choruspondence. I also want to thank Martha for her dedication to this Newsletter for the past two seasons, and showing me the ropes as well! I just I thought since I am new to this, I would take the time to introduce myself! I am 29 years old and I was born and raised right here in Memphis. I graduated from Ridgeway High School in 2000 and attended The University of Tennessee, Knoxville (Go Vols!). I came back to Memphis in March 0f 2009 to help my mother who was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer. I have always loved to sing even as a young child and missed it after not singing anywhere for over a year. When I found out about the Memphis Symphony Chorus, my mother was the first person to encourage me to audition. This is my third season with this great organization and I have loved meeting new people and singing fabulous songs. When my mother passed in the summer of 2010, I couldn’t wait to get back to rehearsals with the chorus and the chorus is one of the reasons I was able to make it this past year. I really don’t know what I would have done without the incredible people in the chorus and I thank each and every one of you for a wonderful two years so far! I want to welcome all the new people to the Memphis Symphony Chorus and I hope your first season in the chorus will be as amazing as my first season was for me! If you are finding it difficult to keep up, don’t get discouraged.
